Aba La

The road to the summit is paved. It’s called S305 Provincial Road. The road is 413 km long. It runs between the G109 (near Nagqu) and G318 roads. It’s asphalted and pretty straight. Remember this is a mountainous area, climbing up a high mountain, with a notorius absence of oxygen. Altitude and extreme weather are always a factor.
