The journey continues overland southeast then circling to head northeast to the heart land of the famed Tibetan Warrior Nomads - the Khampas. This stunning route crosses several 4,000 m passes, winding through lush green alpine valleys and gushing gorges. You will feel the grandeur of the limitless horizons, breath-taking peaks and hidden monasteries, where the people of Tibet are as beautiful and proud as history has painted them.
