Days 1150–1163Atambua – Dili

Background to Timor-Leste

Timor-Leste: Last Corner of Southeast Asia, Heart of the Coral Triangle

Published on 10.09.2025, 08:37 in Darwin, Australia

This report’s podcast is only available in german:  Osttimor: Der letzte Zipfel Südostasiens mitten im Korallendreieck.

We spend a good two weeks in the small, inconspicuous country of Timor-Leste. However, we only spend a few days of that time in the saddle, as it is barely more than 100 km from the border crossing to our destination, the capital city of Dili. Instead, we spend time with our Warmshowers host Rob, visit the few sights in Dili, and take a trip to the small island of Atauro, which impresses us with its marvelous underwater world right off its beaches. It is the last highlight of our Southeast Asia stage, which we finally complete in Dili after more than 9 months.

If you like to help us stay highly motivated to produce reports about our trip, we would greatly appreciate your support via paypal.me/zweiradlertouren or send us your criticism, praise, and other suggestions or hints to hi@zweiradlertouren.de. For more information on how you can support us, please visit our FAQ page.

We are going to get on our bicycles once again and further collect kilometers :-)

See you again soon!
