India to Europe Overland in 2013
Hello,
Does anybody else plan to go overland from India to Europe in 2013?
As the sitioation in Pakistan and specialy Iran might be "difficult", I wounder if there is still a way back to Europe.
Would be nice to share informations about Visas (and where to get them), safety situation, and possible alternative routes.
Greetings from Indonesia
Heiko

One alternative is the KKH highway from Pakistan to China and then on to the Stans.
Anybody planing this for summer 2013?
To keep the costs down for crossing China a group would be good.
It seams, that I can only apply for the pakistan visa in my homecountry    
Have to solve that...
Greetings Heiko

I second what Beemer said. Apparently it's possible to go north and cross the Caspian sea. I was considering using this same route before my bike broke down. You do have to cross a small section of China though.
