As you Rebels will be adjusting to our new surroundings in the beautiful capital city of Pakistan, our first hop after breakfast will be to visit Faisal Masjid, the first modern architectural construction of a mosque built in the 80s. Let's not linger too long, as we want to make it to AKHO Sunbeam School well before the last bell of the day. We'll meet and greet the children and teachers and present our donations to them before heading to Rawalpindi to tour the infamous Truck Art Workshop, where all those funky disco 3M trucks are painted and pimped up!

The day kicks off early as we take the most exhilarating flight weaving between mountains to Skardu - you will be blown away by the scenic landscape just on this flight alone and of course there is much more to come! As we arrive in Skardu, our rides along with the rest of the crew will be waiting for us. We will catch a quick bite and hop on to the bikes to head for Shigar, marveling at the ancient architecture of Forts and Mosques, and immersing ourselves in the cultural tapestry of this fascinating region with its fruit orchards and rich fields of barley and wheat.

On our second day we will make our way to Khaplu, a scenic ride along the river where they'll be of course, river-crossings but also some fun in the sand dunes of the world's highest cold desert. Spending the rest of the day exploring Khaplu town; a popular base for trekking into some of the highest mountains known to man. We will spend the night in Khaplu, in a very very special place.

Next morning we will ride back to Skardu, eat some delicious food (like everyday) explore the quaint city, visit Kharpocho Fort, hike up to Organic Village and take a stroll in the Skardu bazar. Keep those pockets full of candies as Rebels Uber rides for school kids will happen along the way! We will spend the night in the city rest up for the big day ahead!

As we bid farewell to Skardu, the scenic journey continues towards Aliabad via Gilgit, through thrilling roads and epic landmarks along the way. En route, a delightful stop for lunch awaits us at Kashgar Khorak Mahal, providing a chance to savor Momos, other local cuisine and replenish our energy till Aliabad. It's going to be our longest day yet, but it will be worth it as our dinner and accommodation will be dreamy and super cozy.

We'll take a well deserved break from the bikes and immerse ourselves in the cultural richness of Karimabad. We will explore the rich history of Altit Fort, visit the women and kids in "Altit Village", make our donations to community members, wander through the lively tapestry of Karimabad and finish the day off at Duiker to witness a breathtaking sunset, where the panoramic views will leave you speechless, quite literally, much like everything else!

An early breakfast and checkout from our hotel to make our way to the world's highest frontier, the Pak-China Border at a record altitude of almost 16,000 feet. We will make a quick pit stop on the way at Silk Route Lodge which will be our home for the next days. On our way down from "Khunjerab Pass" we will eat a late lunch at the infamous Yak Grill, before a gorgeous sunset and bonfire night back at the lodge.

On this day you will have the option of cruising on the bikes or riding in one of the support vehicles. We begin with a visit to the captivating Attabad Lake and take a boat ride on the stunning turquoise waters. Afterwards, we will make our way over to Ghulkin Music School, a special place we support through our charitable work. Here, the children graciously welcome us with a performance, showcasing their remarkable music talent, donations are given out as we share the joy of our annual visit. With full hearts our crew shall later rejoice in a truly special musical night at the Red Nest Cafe.

We will head to Misghar, a tiny hamlet overlooking the Wakhan Corridor, about 1 hour and 30 mins away. Here, we have the opportunity to arrange an outdoor meal prepped by our private chef. The journey will then lead us to the Fort, offering a glimpse of history, the ancient Silk Road, along with a visit to the quaint Post Office, unraveling tales of the region's past. We do encourage side-quests, so if you fancy braaping off for a while, just let us know. As the day winds down, we convene for a delightful dinner at Silk Route Lodge, reflecting on the day's adventures and enjoying a relaxing evening at this soulful retreat.

A short ride and some off-roading will lead us to Borit Lake, a hidden gem cradled between mountain peaks, where you can also swim, boat, paddle board etc if the weather permits. From here, we can enjoy a scenic walk to a glacier; the first turn where you get a full view of it still takes our breath away! Our adventures for the day will continue as we do some thrill seeking suspension bridge crossing and zip lining before calling it a day. A bittersweet night where we shall bid farewell to our biking support staff and loyal steeds.

It'll be a mid-night bus ride from Hunza to Skardu well before the ass crack o' dawn, a 6 hour journey straight to the airport to catch our flight back to Islamabad. Upon arrival, you will have the morning to settle in or explore the capital city, depending on the flight schedule. For the evening, we will gather together for a Drum Circle - a unique and powerful experience where we let ourselves loose into the orchestration of the rhythmic heartbeat of drums.

After breakfast, we will head over to Saidpur Village, a historical gem where one of the rare Hindu temples on Muslim territory still remains standing. We will continue the day's adventures by exploring local bazaars, where vibrant colors, lively atmospheres and a myriad of goodies/souvenirs await us.
