Wander Beyond Boundaries announces Himalayan Winter Expedition

New Delhi, January 7: Wander Beyond Boundaries (WBB), the pioneer in introducing extreme overlanding to the Indian motoring landscape has announced its latest edition of 4x4 extreme terrain winter expedition across remote & forgotten roads in the Himalayas.

The 2200 km drive is powered by Mahindra Adventure, Terrain Fit, Yokohama & SCCI Golden Cruiser, wherein Ten (10) expedition ready Mahindra Scorpios will face up to extreme weather in the Himalayan Winter Expedition which promises to be a test for both man & machine.

While announcing the driving schedule Nidhi Tiwari, Founder WBB said: "These drives ensure that people push boundaries both within themselves and the outside. The route is challenging, so is the weather; it calls for precision driving and though there are definitely limitations with respect to food & stay among other things, that is what excites an adventure traveller, more so a 4x4 enthusiast, to explore these remote lands. This drive strings have together forgotten roads in Kinnaur, Lahaul & Pangi valley."
