Two handbreadths under the sky - Bartang
The Pamir is one of the most spectacular and at the same time most remote high mountain regions in the world. Rising well over 7,000 meters in eastern Tajikistan, travelers can expect a unique cultural landscape and boundless hospitality.
Our journey takes us by off-road vehicle from Dushanbe, the capital of Tajikistan, along the legendary Pamir Highway to Rushan. Here we get on our bikes and ride in eight stages through the Bartang Valley, up to the 4,020m high Karakul Lake. We continue across the border to Kyrgyzstan, where we finish our bike tour at the foot of Peak Lenin (7,134m).
