Die Berichte von vielen Reisenden über heilige Berge, lebende Götter und eine friedliche Religion haben im Abandland den Mythos Tibet geschaffen. Auch wir sind diesem Mythos erlegen und reisen mit unseren zwei Motorrädern dorthin, in eines der entlegensten Gebiete der Erde, auf das "Dach der Welt". Dort steht der Mount Kailish, der heilige Berg, der in der Mythologie als Nabel der Welt verankert ist; ein fernes Ziel vieler buddhistischer Pilger und nun auch unseres. Wir reisen quer durch den Westen, auf endlosen Kilometern Piste, immer mit der Sicht auf die schneebedeckten Gipfel des Himalaya.

Unsere Erlebnisse dokumentiert der Film "Mit dem Motorrad zum Mount Kailish - eine Pilgerreise durch Tibet."
