Lahore Museum which houses the famous statue of the Fasting Buddhaand Kim's Gun, immortalized by Rudyard Kipling. Our day culminateswith the sensational Shalimar Gardens

Ourjourney into the Indus valleycivilization takes us first toHarappa, the site of an ancient andimportant settlement from the 3rdmillennium BC that stands witnessto the 5000 year old culturalcontinuity of civilization inPakistan.

What little we know of this vibrantculture of the Indus Valley civilizations comes from the work done atMoenjodaro and Harappa. The architecture is unusual and alien. Thecity was planned with wide avenues and streets set in square orrectangular blocks, with an elaborate and effective system of wastedrainage, which has excited much interest.

An afternoon Sukkur tour includes the Faiz Mahal and the Mohana boatpeople, who live in their boats or in temporary thatched huts along the

shore. There are some beautiful examples of tile work at some of thetombs and shrines in Sukkur, and, of course, a lively and interestingmarketplace.

4) Bike Trips

the most remarkable bike trip in the world,Bike Hunza, takes one through an area saidto be the inspiration behind James Hilton's"Shangri-La," Hunza. This bike trip traversesthe complete length of the incredible valleyof Hunza by way of the Karakoram Highway.The Karakoram Highway connects Pakistanwith China and is considered an engineering


18/20

feat as it winds through the narrow gorges of this remote mountainkingdom. Completed in the late 1970s, this famous highway follows theold silk route, entering China at the Khunjerab Pass (4833 m.) whereour ride begins. To arrive at our starting point (Khunjerab Pass) we fly(weather permitting) from Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan, to Gilgit

at 1454 m. Jeeps to the top of Khunjerab Pass then transport us in twodays with an overnight hotel stay at Gulmit or Sost. From the crest ofthe pass, our downhill bicycle journey takes us to Gulmit in three easyfive-hour days. At Gulmit a rest day is scheduled. This provides time fora day hike into the depths of this stunning valley. Karimabad, thecapital of Hunza, is our next destination. Here one can do some ruggedmountain biking in the nearby glacial valley called Hopar. The last legof our tour consists of a two day ride to Gilgit with an excursion toNalter. The stupendous wall of Rakaposhi rises from the bed of theHunza River, past the Karakoram Highway with a 6000 m. gain; ishonoring it as the steepest place on our planet. With the sight of

Rakaposhi rich on our minds, we roll into Gilgit and either fly or driveback to Islamabad.

Bicycling on the winding roads of the Himalaya, Karakoram andHindukush valleys would heighten your experience as you will have anoccasion of a tidies uphill paddling and then abruptly ride downhill,passing through alpine forests, open valleys, along the rivers and lakesand lush meadows. Meet friendly people on the way as you may beoffered with a local taste of tea and perhaps food. We can arrange yourbicycle tour with a van to follow you so that you may at any time climb

aboard the vehicle in case you are tired or the weather disallow you tocontinue bicycling. This trek is for real mountain bike freaks, physicallywell prepared people! Experience in mountain biking is a must.
