Mustang refers to Tibet like arid landscape with open meadows. Mustang - a formerly forbidden kindgom along the Kali Gandaki river sharing border with Tibet-China. Officially there are two parts - Lower and Upper. Upper Mustang has a long and rich history that makes it one of the most interesting places on earth. Opened to foreign travellers only around early 1990s, Upper Mustang still is vastly unexplored.
JOIN US on this adventurous ride to Upper Mustang! Riders must be in extremely good health and hearts filled with great sense of adventure. Must have good technical riding skills too. Roads are narrow, gorges are deep, dusty, rocky and often dangerous. But the rewards are amazing! Architectural remnants, religious and cultural monuments, ancient caves, arid moonlike landscapes and the snowy peaks, nomadic lifestyles are the highlights of the area
