- This is my adventure riding the Pamir Highway from Dushanbe through to Sara-Tash in Kyrgyzstan. On my way I encountered extensive road works as the Chinese rebuilt the section that follows the Afghanistan border, had to wait out some tricky weather conditions and found myself having an unexpected, prolonged stay at a Kyrgyzstan military compound. I was attempting to be one of the first tourist through this border in over 18 months following a conflict over disputed borders and water. Hope you enjoy!

What an awesome video Evan, thanks for sharing such amazing trip! 👍👍
Amazing trip
Thanks. I need to watch it again. If you do have time and more footage, I would love to see more. We are coming from the Brisbane direction. Cheers Rolanda
Thank you for the feedback! I took over 3hrs of footage in the end, but tried to narrow down to the best clips, around every corner seemed to be more incredible views! Maybe I could do an extended version with longer clips of the riding
Hi Evan if you have time I would love to see you. Awesome series. What a great trip
Good luck..
Hi Evan, how awful that it happened. Obviously could not organize a piss up in a brewery as we say at home. Thank you for all the lovely videos..awesome. cheers Rolanda
Just found your channel, greetings from Bremen, Germany.
Greetings, thank you for watching!
Good quality content bro watching from India
thank you for the comment mate ☺
Órale Loko, that is very insane. Good luck ese. I’m from Mexico DF and I would like travel to Tajikistan someday, I hope. The view of the mountains is breathtaking!! Currently, I’m learning Russian xD
Awesome man, I would highly recommend adventuring to Tajikistan one day, it was an incredible place to visit. Great idea to learn Russian, all of these Stan countries are ex Soviet Union so speak Russian as a second language, so that would very much come in handy!
Hello Evan, it took you so long to edit this video, but is very good. Please tell us about off road in your journey. How many Kmts (more or less) of off road did you find in Russia, Kazahastan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan & Mongolia. Thanks & regaards.
Thank you for the feedback :) Depending on the route, but most of the Pamir Highway routes that I did was off road, so I would guess around 800km. Tajikistan certainly had the most off road sections. In Uzbekistan the road from the border with Kazakhstan and Nukus was in such bad condition it is effectively off road, so another 300km there. Russia is all asphalt unless you take some detours, again you could do the entirety of Mongolia on Asphalt to Ulunbataar, but i did around 300km off road, and there are really endless off road options in Mongolia. Hope this helps :)
Brilliant video. Can I ask what month you were in Tajikistan ?
Thank you for the kind comment. I was in Tajikistan at the end of July, crossing in Kyrgyzstan on the 3rd of August.
@@evanhenman eek! I’m planning on going this summer and was hoping the waters would have receded by then
I didn't have any issue with river crossings, levels were quite low. The trick is to ride in the morning when the glacier melt is at its slowest if it is hot when your there
