Motorcycle BROKEN DOWN in Monglia is Scary S8 EP.50 | Altai Tavn Bogd | Pakistan to Japan
My fingers are so cold that I can't drive. The more you travel, the brighter you shine. So, the motorcycle has broken down here. It's not starting. Assalam-o-Alekum everyone and welcome back to the channel from a small village in Altai region of Mongolia where I stayed for the night.
In the last two days, I left Olgi and I had to go to Altai Tavan Bogd National Park. But unfortunately, the route I opted was right, although it was different and difficult. A blessing in disguise was that I explored the White River Valley and shared the beauty of the area with you. I was planning to leave for Olgi yesterday but then I thought that since I'm in Mongolia, why not explore this area. So this is the right way to reach the National Park. I will leave early morning and visit the glaciers and the highest peaks of Altai region.
I stayed here for the night. It's like a guest house. Anyway, it was a great experience. Let's leave now and take you to Altai Tavan National Park. Okay, bye.
(prayer for journey) May I have a blessed and safe day ahead. I refueled from here yesterday. And I will do the same on my way back. I paid 30,000 Tugrik which is around less than $10. I had food and dinner here.
I bought milk for breakfast from here. I had some muesli with me. And they gave me tea.
I have to cross the river again to reach the other side. I am not sure if I will come back today or tomorrow. Or which route I will take. Let's leave from here today. I will decide once I see the glaciers. It's quite cold today.
It was snowing here last night. It still looks like flakes of snow are falling. And it's quite windy.
Otherwise, there are multiple nomad yurts here. There is a lot of tourism. But it's almost the end of the season. I have to see if I can find anything at the base camp.
My fingers are so cold that I can't drive. I am warming them up by placing them near the engine. Since I have no other option left. You can see all the peaks from here.
Wonderful! Amazing! Mexico City, Budapest, Beijing, Sydney, Cape Town, New Delhi, 2490 km. Buenos Aires, 16,000 km. The National Park entrance has just started from here. The more you travel, the brighter you shine.
These are the areas where I have to go. Which road should I opt? This one? Let's opt this one. It's leading down there.
What an amazing scenery! The landscape here is unbelievable. I can see this type of landscape after every curve. All the days that I have spent here, were like this. West Mongolia has impressed me a lot. Since there are high peaks here as well.
So you get to see something different. If it's just a plain, the scenery doesn't change much. There is a beautiful meadow down here and the river is flowing.
And there are snow-covered peaks behind it. My motorcycle has broken down here. It's not starting. What happened? It has suddenly stopped here.
In the middle of nowhere. What should I do? Oh God! I was thinking in the morning to go back to Olgi. It might be due to this sensor.
Thank God. I was quite surprised at the bike being broken down. I think there was some issue with the sensor. If something happens, I will remove the sensor.
Have a look. I was just taken back. Thanks God! The sensor has been impacted by a lot of movement. So I will remove it later. If I have to cut off the wires, I will do it. Such issues in these areas are quite problematic.
Of course I will find some local. and I can request him to take it to Olgi. The motorcycle has broken down again.
Now... I am going to remove this sensor. Let's find a way out. Otherwise, it'll be troublesome all the way. I have connected the wires and put tape on it.
I have tied it properly. And now let's start Rangeeli (the motorcycle) And let's see In the name of Allah Rangeeli has started That's it I don't know much about it But it's from Allah that if there is any issue I either call my friends or try by myself. I had no idea that what happened to it, I lifted the stand and started. Because when I start it, I hear a noise. I had a doubt that the stand might be producing noise.
Thank God, Rangeeli has started again. Let's go ahead. Let it get a little warm. What is the temperature of the motorcycle? 19 I have just parked it here for a while. Let's pray that I don't face any more difficulties.
Mongolia is testing my nerves. There is a small river crossing ahead. Look at this beautiful lake. The water is so blue. Finally, now I can see the base camp.
This is the accommodation here. After that, I have to cover a few kilometers to reach the viewpoint. Today's journey was good. It took about 3.5 hours to reach here. I have to pass through here. Look at all this ice.
Everything has already started to freeze here. Only a few camps are left. Others have been removed. There were no tourists on the other side. At least I can see some cars here.
Some tourists are here. Hardly anyone comes from that side. It's quite possible that people cross from here.
If they wish to see that valley. But it will be difficult because of all this fresh snow. Anyway, I had tried from there but I couldn't go. Now we don't have to go there.
Now I have to go back through this route. Please don't run after me. My hands are frozen. Before going up, let's take a short break here. If they are available here. I will have some tea and then leave.
Is there anyone here? I don't think there is anyone here. There is a motorcycle. Hello, how are you? How are you? Hello, can I have tea? Yes Very cold They were very nice people. They gave me tea. They brought noodles, I said I am not that hungry.
I will have a little bit of them. They said we will not take money from you. If you come back and order something then we will charge you. They are telling that there is a viewpoint 11 km away from here.
It's possible that you won't be able to cover all the way because some cars have come from there in the morning. They have told that the road is bad. So you can try. I said okay, since, I have come this far.
So let's see. There's another river crossing ahead. It doesn't look too deep.
It looks like it from a distance. I'll know when I get closer. Where do people cross from? I think people cross from that side.
It's a little deeper from this side. Let's go Rangeeli. This is the entrance to the viewpoint.
Permit might be checked here. If someone is sitting here. But there's no one here. There's someone there. Hello Hello, how are you? I am good, thank you. Yes Germany Yes Germany.
He said there's snow ahead. So the road is closed. I said I'll go as far as I can. Then I'll come back. He said okay. Actually it's 6 km from here.
I'm not sure if I'll be able to do it. The whole 6 km. But I've come all the way here.
At first, I wanted to go back from here. Because of the situation ahead. But now that I'm here, let's try. I have to go slowly. Shouldn't fall. It'll be a mess if I fall.
While picking up the motorcycle. How will I reach? It's very slippery. I think the wise thing is what the old man said to come back from where there's snow.
Let's have some drone shots from here. The motorcycle will fall. I've tried my best to reach the glaciers' viewpoint. But sometimes, luck is not on our side. And I have to accept it as a traveler.
Yesterday, I was so close to it. Honestly speaking, I'm lucky enough that the bike fell and I decided to go back. It was a big mess ahead. No one was around. And in this cold weather, God forbid, if I had to walk 15 to 20 km, I would have been in a lot of trouble. But it's for the best.
So, I had some drone shots from here. There are beautiful mountains here. The highest peak of Altai region 4300 m, is here. This region is bordered by Russia, China and Mongolia. A lot of tourists visit this region. Especially in West Mongolia.
To see this viewpoint. You can see all the high mountains of Altai region from here. So, at least I have some drone shots for you. I couldn't see it live. I'll see it in drone shots.
So, I decided to go back. I'll see what route I can take. I'll try to spend the evening in Olgi. If I find a place earlier, I might go there. It's been a long day.
But, I have finally reached here. This is the same place where I stayed earlier. Traveller's Guest House. But that time, I stayed in a shared yurt. There was no one else there. When I came here today, some people were already sleeping.
So, I decided to book a private yurt for myself. It's a very clean and spacious yurt. So that I can comfortably spend the night here. Because I am very tired.
It's possible that someone might snore or I snore. So that I don't disturb anyone else. I paid $33 for this. I could have found better options in the city.
But when I checked online, there was no other option available. So, I came straight here. Now I will sleep here.
I went outside to eat something. Since this area is mostly Muslim based. So, you get good Halal food in many places. So, I chose a burger for myself. I am full now.
I hope my stomach will be fine. It was upset since last 2-3 days. But anyway. Let's see where I go tomorrow. You will get to see that in the next vlogs. That's all for today.
