Classic Bike Journeys

The motorcycling adventure of a lifetime

2012 Classic Himalaya

2012 Classic Himalaya

June 29th to July 11th - Royal Enfield 500cc Bullett

Classic Himalaya is the perfect combination of holiday and adventure. A mix of lively sightseeing and exciting riding through jaw dropping scenery.

We fly to Delhi and then set off for the Spiti Valley, one of the remotest inhabited regions in the world.

Described by Rudyard Kipling as “a world within a world” the Spiti Valley is surely one of the worlds great road trips. Once there, you really will feel you’re in another world. Cut off for most of the year due to heavy snow, the valley road has only been open to foreigners since 1992. No words can prepare you for the beauty of Spiti and the Himalaya. It’s like riding through a living museum. Thousands of years of wind erosion have created the most fascinating landscape, often referred to as ‘moonlike’. The terrain varies from lush vegetation through to mountain desert. The roads themselves have to be seen to be believed and are a quite staggering feat of engineering. The route takes us just a few miles from the Tibet border and the influence of this close neighbour is clearly evident in the people, houses and monastries. The whole area has a peaceful and calming feel.

Classic Himalaya is much more than a holiday. It really is the Motorcycling Adventure of a Lifetime.
