Mongolian Explorer
ongolia is one of the world’s last unspoiled wilderness areas, blessed with mountains, lakes, deserts and steppes Mongolia is a land of stark and often spectacular beauty. This journey takes us from the capital, Ulaanbaatar, to the many contrasting features in the vast countryside, such as the endless steppes, the lakes of Arkhangai and the sands of the Gobi Desert. It is also a cultural journey where we meet and travel with the nomadic descendants of a people whose empire once dominated most of Asia. We stay in gers (local style tents, also known as yurts) on our journey, and also join our Mongolian friends and their camels on a short desert trek. We may also come across wildlife in Hustai National Park and Zorgol Hairhan Mountain.
