Trip to pass Sugela with a beautiful view on the glacial peak of seven thousand high QiongmoKangri beautifully follows a trip to lake Namtso, but even so it's not quite a typical stop on a tour around Tibet.

But it is definitely worth to try this alternative and explore the deserted landscape around one of the highest motorized passes in the world.
