Gyirong Port: 90km Drop from 4,250m to 1,800m!



Starting at 4,250 meters in Gyirong County, I pointed my motorcycle downhill and didn’t look back. In just 90 kilometers the road plunges all the way to 1,800 meters at the Nepal border. What begins as high, barren plateau suddenly transforms into a deep, forested canyon. Alpine meadows give way to dense spruce and fir forests, waterfalls cascade down sheer cliffs, and clouds swirl through the valley like something out of a dream. This is the ancient route that once linked Tibet to Nepal and India — locals call it the Himalayas’ backyard and Tibet’s own little Jiangnan. Follow the bike through hairpin turns, past rebuilt Tibetan villages, and into one of the most dramatic altitude drops you’ll ever ride. Pure mountain adventure from the roof of the world straight to the border.

  1. Боже мой! 😢 Волна была выше этого здания. Тяжёлая масса консистенции жидкого бетона, которая поднимается выше здания и обрушивается на людей. Господи, упокой души погибших и дай найти всех. 🙏

  2. It's really a shame that most of those people probably died in TIBET, but since the CCP won't bring in journalists to check we dno't have a reliable casualty list.
    It's also a shame that China has done so much dangerous construction in this area, the Tibetans and Nepalese deserve better.
    Thank you for the video, free Tibet!

  3. E' terribile pensare che Gyirong Port sia stato cancellato dalla faccia della terra e che tutte le persone che lì si trovavano siano morte atrocemente. In effetti tutti i segni di alluvioni e frane riscontrati nella discesa al confine, fanno pensare che l'improvvisa alluvione mortale possa essere stata generata da un crollo altrettanto improvviso delle montagna e il suo ghiacciaio. Questa catastrofe mi riporta alla memoria qualcosa di simile avvenuto in Italia il 9 ottobre del 1963, quando il crollo del monte Toc generò una frana di 270 milioni di metri cubi, precipitati nel bacino della diga Vajont, creando un'onda gigantesca di circa 250 m d'altezza che saltò la diga. L'onda che cancellò i paesi di Longarone e molti altri sottostanti, era di 70 metri. Alla fine i morti accertati sono stati 1917. Che tutte le anime dei morti possano trovare la pace ed i loro cari la forza necessaria per andare avanti

  4. Fascinating. Thank you for view coming in from other side of Himali mountains. With climate change these narrow gorges and vertical drop sides will channel water, mud downstream

  5. นาที่ 21.30 น่าจะเป็นจุดที่รถคนจีนสองคันขับไปเจอน้ำท่วมที่ไหลย้อนขั้นมาจากด่านจี๋หลงโข่วอั้น ตามในคลิปเลย

  6. That was really fun to tag along with you through all the different terrains! Parts were absolutely breathtaking.
    You are a very conscientious bike rider. Those hairpin turns were so fun!!

    I'm here after the devastation in China and Nepal.
    My heart is broken for everyone impacted.
    Many times during the day I find myself thinking of someone I saw on the news and I pray for them. I wish I could do so much more. I am so sorry this happened to the Nepalese people and the Chinese people who lost their lives as well. ❤

  7. Сейчас на этом месте просто ровная площадка, как будто человек тут никогда и не был((((😢
