A motorcycle journey into the Himalaya: Road to Mustang

Posted by Anup Baral December 25, 2015 :
Follow Manuel Rauch's five day tour to the Tibetian Kingdom of Mustang in the Himalayas. The journey was filmed in February 2015 - it follows one of the deepest gorges in the world, along the Kali Gandaki River. My motorcycle is a Classic Royal Enfield 350cc made in India - a rental from Kathmandu. The tour starts in Pokhara, Nepal with overnight stays in Tatopani and Jomsom. Manuel is trying to reach Muktination at 3,800 Meters. The mountain ranges are the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri, both over 8000 Meters high. Its still early February so some locals told Manuel and he may not be able to reach my destination due to ice along the trail. This is filmed in POV, He hope this will give you an idea of the riding conditions and scenery along the way.
