This is the story of a 1,100 km journey, of which 800 km were on foot. Salman Rashid trekked through the three greatest mountain ranges on the globe: the Himalayas, the Karakorums and the Hindu Kush. Following mostly in the footsteps of the great explorers of the 19th and early 20th centuries, Rashid spent a whole summer reliving ‘the quintessence of early travel and exploration’ in difficult conditions and extreme weather.
