Himalaya Extreme

Himalaya Extreme – the Mustang Drive

Embark on an extraordinary self-drive journey through the dramatic landscapes of Nepal and the remote Upper Mustang region—an adventure never before undertaken in safari-prepared Porsches. This Extreme edition of Beyond Adventure takes you deep into the Himalayas, navigating a mix of tarmac and rugged gravel roads that wind through ancient valleys, towering peaks, and some of the most isolated and culturally rich areas on Earth.

Explore the mystical kingdom of Upper Mustang, once restricted and still largely untouched, where Tibetan traditions and language remain alive. Witness epic scenery, from desert ridges and eroded cliffs to the world’s deepest canyon. The adventure begins in the bustling Kathmandu Valley, filled with medieval temples and palaces, before heading into the vast rain-shadowed landscapes formed by the Annapurna and Nilgiri ranges—perfect for year-round exploration.

Driving your own air-cooled Porsche 911 (964/993) or a Cayenne, you’ll experience both challenge and reward, with moments of true adventure: blocked roads, washed-out bridges, and remote terrain demanding flexibility and teamwork. But with every mile, you’ll uncover raw beauty, warm hospitality, and cultural treasures that few ever witness.

This is not just a drive—it’s a bold expedition through one of the planet’s last true frontiers.
