We hope the year has started well for you. We begin with a lot of momentum and new tours and wish you a healthy and BIKERICH 2023!
Hard to believe: It has been 10 years since Artiom and I scouted our first tour in Kyrgyzstan. With Betty (our car), the bikes, Gerda (Artiom’s West Siberian Laika dog) we set off into the Kyrgyz prairie and mountain landscape… 10 years later, Artiom, Betty, and Gerda are still with us, but of course, many many more folks have joined. Leading the pack are Tilek and his family. By now, we have traveled throughout the region by bike. We’ve completed many tours and seen many happy, overwhelmed, and grateful faces. Even after 10 years, we are enthusiastic about what we do, inspired by traveling in this region, have new ideas, and simply want to share this enthusiasm. At this point, a big thank you to all the travel participants, partners, and supporters, and especially to our team of guides, cooks, bus drivers, helpers on-site and here in Germany!
Have fun reading through and exploring our 2023 tours.

HIGHLIGHTS 2023
During the TV shoot with the MDR Biwak team in Uzbekistan in 2019, the idea came up to create a mountain bike trip through Uzbekistan’s mountains — see it in the ARD Mediathek. The impressions we gained from the expedition blew us away. The result is a varied mountain bike tour from the shore of Uzbekistan’s largest body of water, the Aydar Kul Lake, across three mountain ranges to the country’s highest peaks at over 4,000 meters. All this, of course, in the typical Epic Trails style: authentic, close to land and people, with lots of fun and adventure.
- 1Tour: 20.05 – 03.06.2023
- 2Tour: 16.09 – 30.09.2023
An anniversary trip for the tenth anniversary—in this season we will take a very special route combination through the Pamirs. The Bartang and Wakhan routes, usually two separate trips, will be combined this time. Combined with a trip to the realm of the Marco Polo sheep, you can expect a unique journey this year.
- 1Tour: 24.08 – 09.09.2023
RETROSPECT INTO LAST YEAR
After two years of COVID-19 and almost no trips, our last season was finally a travel season again with many encounters, trips, and adventures. new trips and challenges. Starting with a 32-day individual trip through Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and Kyrgyzstan, through the pilot trip of our new Uzbekistan mountain bike tour “Adventure Silk Road,” up to Pamir and Kyrgyzstan group tours, there were so many impressions and tours. You can find some impressions here..
1,000 KILOMETERS THROUGH EASTERN CUBA
For those making spontaneous decisions wanting to escape bad weather, we recommend the cycling trip “1,000 Kilometers Through Eastern Cuba” together with Stefan and Jörg (our Uzbekistan tour guide, also known as Shellac Jörg).
We want to cross the Oriente, the eastern part of Cuba, together. It is scenically spectacular, culturally very authentic, with lots of music, and since we are mainly traveling along the coast, countless swimming opportunities along the way…
