Mountain Biking in Tibet
Tibet’s sacred mountains and profound Buddhist culture have
attracted travellers for centuries. This mysterious land, kept away
from the world for so many years and still rarely visited, offers an
unforgettable experience of an ancient culture and a unique race of
people locked amidst a vast and beautiful landscape.
Tibet
has to be the high point in any mountain bikers riding life. This
remote and beautiful country lies hidden behind Mt. Everest and many
more of the highest peaks in the world of the Great Himalayan range. To
the North is the largest desert in the world, the Gobi / Talka Maka
desert while to the East is China having kept the secrets of Tibet
closed to all western exploration until the late 19th century.
Only
few cyclists have ridden along its inhospitable plateau, at a
breathless average altitude of more than 14000 feets. We are sure
you’ll enjoy this unforgettable expedition.
