Cross country trips to Tibet are very popular during the summer season when it is not that cold up there. We conduct several different trips to Tibet which start in Nepal. There is even an extreme biking road trip that takes several days and goes over three to four 5000+ m high passes.

The Lhasa to Kathmandu ride could be classified as ‘one of the most demanding rides’ open to cyclists. You have to deal with high altitude, long distances, various kinds of weather, bad road conditions and change of life style. The Lhasa to kathmandu ride could be one of the highest in the world. Proper acclimatization is vital to anyone hoping to complete this expedition. For this purpose we spent four days acclimatizing while sightseeing and enjoying the city and surroundings of Lhasa.

2008 Group Departure Dates: May 2, 15, 29, June 12, 26, July 13, 26, Aug 12, 26, Sept 9, 18, 27 Cost Price: GBP 1099 per person A great mass of black rock soaring to over 22,000 feet, Mt. Kailash has the unique distinction of being the world's most venerated holy place at the same time that it is the least visited. The supremely sacred site of four religions and billions of people, Kailash is seen by no more than a few thousand pilgrims each year. This curious fact is explained by the mountain's remote location in far western Tibet. No planes, trains or buses journey anywhere near the region and even with rugged over-land vehicles the journey still requires weeks of travel. Mt Kailash (6741 m) is the most sacred of Holy Mountains in Tibet. |
