Motorized

Although mountain biking is for everybody, the hot and humid Cambodian climate is definitely not, so if you can’t imagine yourself pedalling around the countryside, a quad adventure might be your pick.

These automatic quad bikes are easy to drive and it’s a great way to get out and see some of the countryside and how people in rural Cambodia live.

Two companies offer quad bike tours: one in Siem Reap (Quad Bike Adventure) and one in Phnom Penh (Blazing Trails).

Dirt Bike Riding in CambodiaCambodia offers a lot of opportunities for dirt bike riders. Many of the main roads between major towns are in good to reasonable conditions, but once off these roads the real adventure begins.

You can just rent a bike at one of the rental shops in Phnom Penh, Siem Reap, Sihanoukville or Kampot and - with a good map - find your own way around the country.

However, if you want to explore jungle tracks (like in the Cardamom Mountains), only do that with an experienced guide. In some areas there are hundreds of walking trails and ox-cart tracks and as there are no signs or people, you'd easily get lost.
