ROYAL ENFIELD HIMALAYAN TRIP ACROSS MONGOLIAN STEPPES





Mongolia is one of our most queried  destinations past few years, Mongolia has appealed most of our riders to its vast steppes, and Yurts. Galloping endless pastures on motorcycle is out of this world feeling. The land of great Changis Khan is merciless in the winter, summer is the ideal temperature to get around the country.

Mongolia KTM Rally.







Mongolia is truly one of the world's last undiscovered travel destinations and the safest country to visit. It is a land where you can experience wide-open spaces, cobalt blue skies, forests, deserts, crystal clear rivers and lakes, and the traditional hospitality of the nomads. Permanent dwellings are few and far between, fences even fewer and the land is owned by the people, like one large National Park. As a tremendous destination to experience the outdoors, Mongolia also boasts of unique history dating back to the Mongol Empire of Genghis Khan. Simply put, it is a land of adventure, horses, nomads, and blue sky. we ride across Mongolia on KTM & Royal Enfield.


Our Mongolian Motorcycle Ride is a fantastic adventure weaving through spectacular valleys, crossing beautiful rivers and camping in remote areas. You will see ground squirrels, vultures, herds of yaks, try your hand at fishing, these are just a few of the activities on this awe inspiring trip.

This is an exotic and esoteric land so if you are expecting to get whatever you desire you may be disappointed.
It is a good idea to check and see if your travel insurance covers these motorcycle tours. Some insurance companies may prefer tours with guides rather than self-driving which is risky in such harsh terrains.
If you don’t know the language request for a translator to join you on the tour. They can accompany the tour guide and the cook back in the service car. Also, if you are not too much into exotic food then make sure that the cook knows how to cook continental or simple American dishes. Trust me, you don’t want an upset tummy in the middle of the desert.
Some tour operators include the price of hotels in the package. But if you want to save money then do some research and book them yourself. Just make sure that the hotels are located close to each halt so that you don’t waste time going up and down.
Motorcycle tours in Mongolia are very different from the rest of the world. They need more expertise, professional skill, comfortable riding gears and experience with the terrain to make them a success. It is a good idea to opt for a professional company with excellent reputation. They will not only offer well planned tours but also ensure excellent rider safety and security.

There has been many wheelies happening along the ride, but Ben did it right!

Himalayan Heroes adventure to Eastern Himalayas-INDIA

January 2017, Himalayan Heroes crew ventured through the most stunning yet remote land of eastern India. Between the lost tribes of Nagaland (Head hunters) and the most isolated settlement of Tawang, upper region of Arunachal Pradesh. Two weeks motorcycling through dense bamboo forest and bone freezing cold of Sela pass whilst tackling endless bends of amazing road to Twang. It was a pure motorcycling experience to discover the authentic culture, delicious cuisine, breathtaking landscape and heart-warming people of Arunachal and Nagaland.  

Our original plan was to cross border into  Burma (Myanmar) from India and spend around a week to explore Burma and eventually head back to India; which didn't happen due to some political instability and we worked out the plan B, to ride around North-East of India, and it was a great decision. 
Here below are few shots from our ride and ever since we have came back from Eastern India, we've been planning a new ride. Can't wait to ride there again.....

The Death Vallley of Indian Himalaya



 
Saddling up to ride around Indian sub-continent including high Himalaya? Here is one route that you don't  want to miss on your riding itinerary. "The Death Valley of Indian Himalaya". Yes indeed, its one of the most breathtaking regions of India, where you will tackle the roads of your dream adventure. This ride is remarkable in every terms of motorcycling, the scenery is sublime and imposing and nature appears in her wildest and grandest moods.


 Everything in Himachal Pradesh is on a stupendous scale. it's a region of Himalayan shepherds reside in the most isolated settlements in middle of nowhere. Getting there is an adventure itself.  The mighty Chandra-Bhaga river rolls along in a deep and narrow gorge of Pangi. 




 On the lower ranges are grassy slopes of rich pasture with dense forests of pine and cedar, while higher up the stern and majestic mountains attaining an altitude from 18,000 to 21,000 feet rising far above the line of eternal snow. But all this is not rugged and sublimity and naked beauty. Every few miles the traveler reaches tolerably open nooks of surpassing beauty, which may have been small lakes in some gone by age, while the river was cutting its course."
