London to Ulaanbaatar
 

Hello there,

Over next July/August ( 9 weeks ) I am intending to travel in a group of three to Ulaanbaatar through Europe-Ukraine-Kazakhstan and have a few questions!

(1) I am not particularly concerned about the initial route through Europe and would like to spend as much time as possible in Kazakhstan and Mongolia. Having said that, I would like to chill a bit in the alpine section ( Switzerland-Austria). We will crossing at Geneva so which are the best towns/passes worth seeing en route to the hungarian border where we will begin to pick up the pace again.

(2) Considering the distance, what sort of mileage should we attempt to do per day? Although there is time pressure, I would love to not be constantly looking at the GPS. We will be traveling on KLR650s.


(3) Finally, how long should I attempt to spend in europe before hitting kazakh and mongolia?

Sorry for the long post but I would appreciate any input!

Sounds like a great trip ahead! Have a good read through other peoples travel logs on here and adv rider etc and compare their route with your one and you'll find plenty place to add ( and remove! ) from your itinerary
