Pamir Highway in August 2019
Hello,
I’m seeing if anyone is interested or already planning to go through the Pamir Highway loop from Osh in August or early September. I have a KLR 650 in Osh, Kyrgyzstan and am planning to do it, but would prefer to not have to do it alone due to the elevation and possible breakdowns.
I am hoping to do it in 8-10 days. I would like to go through the Wakhan valley, and if it is passable, the Bartang Valley on the way back.
I think I have “intermediate” offroad experience, but I’m not a crazy offroader. I’ve ridden Baja, around SE Asia, through Russia and Mongolia. I would like to do some camping along the way, but stay in homestays where appropriate.
My ideal timeline would be around August 4-14, but can do it later as well, but before the weather gets too cold. If you are planning a similar route around that time and wouldn’t mind some company, please message me and we can see if we can work something out.
Summary of plan:
Time plan: August 2018 (8-10 days, flexible)
Rough route plan: Osh -> Wakhan Valley -> Khorog -> Bartang Valley (optional) -> Osh map of area
Motorcycle: Kawasaki KLR650
Accommodation: some camping / homestays
Thanks!
Dominik.
