Expedition: Asia

Join Ryan and his team as they explore the city of Davao, meeting local people and getting a feel for life in the Philippines. Then they head south to climb the country’s highest mountain, Mount Apo, the dream mountain of every Filipino mountaineer.

Ryan and his team arrive in China’s northwestern province of Inner Mongolia to traverse the remote and deadly Badain Jaran Desert. During the 100+km journey the camel caravan navigates some of the highest sand dunes in the world.

Ryan explores the spiritual side of the tropical island of Bali. The tropical island provides a beautiful backdrop for a great adventure including jungle, hidden temples, active volcanos, local village alcohol and a very strange cemetery.

Ryan arrives in Ulaanbaatar, the capital of Mongolia, and then heads west to the Altai Tavan Bogd National Park to meet local Kazakh people. He treks amongst the snow-capped mountains, including Mongolia’s highest peak, Khuiten.

Ryan ventures to Taiwan to explore some of the island's magical peaks. The Holy Ridge is an absolutely stunning 6-day traverse that takes you along the dragon’s spine, a journey that is over 3000m above sea-level in the Sheipa National Park.

Ryan explores the MacLehose Trail, a 100-km hiking trail that crosses the region, climbs the intense Lion’s Rock, and camps on Sunset Peak on Lantau Island.
