British explorer Ash Dykes embarks on a daring 50-day expedition through the uncharted Amazon rainforest in Suriname this September. His mission? To set three world records: the fastest ascent of Julianatop, the quickest summiting of Suriname's two tallest peaks, and becoming the first to kayak the Coppename River from source to sea. The adventure kicks off with a helicopter jump into the remote jungle. Carrying 40kg of gear, Ash will survive by hunting and fishing, and sleep in hammocks amidst

When hiking the full length of the Yangtze River across China. I was faced by wolves, bears, high altitude and had 10 members who joined at sections evacuate themselves within the first few months of this 352 day 4,000 mile mission 😳 | Ash Dykes

3,400 miles source to sea following the Yellow River across China. As we venture toward the source, we’re acclimatising by working our way up to the 5,000 meters altitude gradually and capturing many adventures along the way. Today I spent time with a Tibetan nomad who became famous on TikTok for sharing his wild lifestyle. Imma show you a side to China that you never see and that the media never shows 😎 | Ash Dykes

Flying out to China today to continue the 3,400-mile Yellow River TV adventure. We’re picking up right where we left off in the Gobi Desert, Inner Mongolia. The production team have been regrouping in the UK, reviewing footage, planning logistics, and now it’s time to take on the next 1,700 miles. From the glaciers at over 5,000m in the far west, across the Tibetan and Qinghai plateau, this journey has already been mega. But now it’s time for the next chapter. Land, air, and sea across China.

Day 59 of travelling 3,400 miles across China along the Yellow River and the team and I have reached the last bend of the river. We have around 400 miles left, which will take around 2 weeks. As you’ve seen, with this, I’m travelling it via many different modes, from kayaking, cycling, paragliding, hiking and driving. We were hoping to get in skydiving and scuba diving too, but the weather just hasn’t been good enough if those locations. This throws me back to meeting the last bend of the Yangtz

3,400 miles. Source to sea. The full length of China’s legendary Yellow River. From the ancient glacier that birthed it, to the deserts, cities and canyons it cuts through, I’m pushing through it all. Here, I enter the Gobi Desert. A landscape that’s tested travellers for centuries. Last time I was here, it was survival mode. This time, I’m tackling a section by dune buggy, a little less life threatening 😅 | Ash Dykes

📣 ANNOUNCING MY NEW PROJECT!!! 📣 I’m taking you on a journey, a mission of land, air and water, following a 3,400 mile force that has taken more lives than any other, yet gave life to one of the oldest civilisations on Earth.. Source to sea from the high altitude mountains in the west, to the east, across the place that almost killed me 11 years ago, the Gobi-Desert…… In my upcoming international TV show: “The Yellow River with Ash Dykes”. 🇨🇳 | Ash Dykes

Day 51 of travelling 3,400 miles along the deadliest river on earth, the Yellow River in China. And today I got drafted into a drum-fight at Hukou Waterfall in Shaanxi! A little training and then dropped in front of an audience 😆 Pretty damn cool though, as this dates back over 4,000 years, once used to rally warriors along the Yellow River. | Ash Dykes

Flying high over the world’s LARGEST green canyon and one of Earths great natural wonders: Blyde River Canyon in South Africa. Towering cliffs, waterfalls, and rock formations carved over millions of years… it felt like flying over multiple countries in one. We were on aerial reconnaissance with Debra from The Black Mambas, scanning wildlife movements and watching for any signs of poachers. Four different biomes collide here, jungle, savannah, mountain, and bush, creating these stunning scenes �

AND WE’RE BACK!!! Travelling 3,400 miles down the Yellow River across China. We’ve finished up in inner-Mongolia and have entered Shaanxi province. Tomorrow I’ll be getting involved in some drum fighting right besides the river, a 4,000 year old tradition 👀 I still can’t mention dates and channels just yet, but it is being produced by @onetribetv and with around 1,700 miles remaining, we won’t be finished until the middle of next month. Until then, I’ll be sharing posts here, so make sure you h

Mongolia is where I became a man. The routine at this point during my hike across the country, was one ration pack at 6am, second ration pack 14 hours later, followed by 5 peanuts in the evening. 23 years old, covering over a marathon a day through the Gobi Desert and Altai Mountains, pulling an 18st (120kg) trailer behind me, that held everything I needed to survive this 1,500 mile expedition, to become the first person to walk solo and unsupported across Mongolia. I faced so many demons and th

Up close and personal with one of nature’s most raw moments, feeding an impala to a cheetah and her two cubs with @oneninerexpeditions!! 🐆 This was carried out in a controlled environment as part of a powerful conservation effort led by Blue Canyon Private Game Reserve (@leopardsbend), who are doing incredible work to protect and preserve Africa’s wildlife. These cheetahs are being prepared for release back into the wild, and part of that process involves rewilding. It’s never easy to witness,

Travelling the entire length of the yellow river across China…. 3,400 miles!!! We’re nearly at the source of the river, I’m out here camping the night after cooking the tastiest trout fillet 🎣 We’re in Qinghai province, known for its vast landscape, high altitude and Tibetan influence…. It’s very peaceful here, a side many people rarely see. But we’re bringin’ it…. The air is certainly thinner and it’s a lot cooler here and we’re only climbing higher and higher. Until tomorrow 🫡 | Ash Dykes

Everything I’m taking with me to China!!! 🇨🇳 I’ve tried to make a habit of filming these before every trip, because I get this question a lot. This time we’re filming an international TV show, so I’m not dropped in the middle of nowhere to survive for months. BUT here are my essentials for the months filming this source to sea Yellow River mission in China, to cover myself for multiple different conditions and extreme activities. If there’s any questions around kit, drop them in the comments!

The sound of the Amazon without trending audio. Turn up the volume 🔊 These are the sounds I love and miss most. You have the birds, frogs, insects and what’s louder than everything else…. the howler monkeys, which sound HAUNTING!! 👻 But it’s also beautiful….. This was day 32 of discovering the source of the Coppename river and becoming the first team to travel from source to sea, we hadn’t yet seen another human being 👀 | Ash Dykes

We’re in Shaanxi province, where the river narrows between cliffs with a huge water fall, a spot known in legend as the Dragon Gate. The story goes that thousands of years ago, carp would fight their way upstream against impossible currents. Most would turn back. But the few that made it through the gate were transformed into dragons. Every person chasing something big knows t

No roads. No easy outs. We were deep in one of the most unexplored countries on Earth. Trying to follow a river from source to sea. And no one had ever done it before. Now, for the first time, you’ll see what really happened. The risks. The setbacks. The survival. The full story. This series drops o

Bathing with the wildlife of the Amazon 🐆🐟🐊 When you first arrive here, everything feels unfamiliar. The jungle is alive in every direction, caiman, electric eels, piranha, stingray and the idea of stepping into their world is unnerving. But over time, the fear fades. You realise nothing’s truly out to get you. They’re just curious… or interested in the smell of dinner cooking on the riverbank. Soon enough, we’d be wading into the river at night, lights off, washing with whatever was near. Li

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!! 🍾 3,400 miles. 69 days. One immense production. I’ve spent the last three months travelling the full length of the Yellow River in China, filming an international TV show that’s taken me from glacial mountain peaks over 5,000 meters high, through the Gobi-Desert, ancient villages, stone forests, and now crossed the end, where this mighty river meets the sea. To the crew: you’ve been phenomenal. We crossed nine provinces, tackled unpredictable weather, altitude sickness,
