Cycling Karakoram Highway 1994

Back to the Travel Page

Our probably most epic journey, which took us by bike from Rawalpindi/Pakistan to Kashgar/China.

Starting from Rawalpindi the two-month trip took us through the Punjab, Kohistan, Hunza, through deep gorges to the Khunjerab pass (almost 5000 meters high) over the high planes behind the Pamir and Khunlun mountain ranges to Kashgar, the old, busy trading town at the edge of the Tarim basin. We finished (after going back by bus to Gilgit) the journey by cycling to Skardu along the Indus gorge.
