Mongolia Treks:

Travel and ride with local horsemen of Mongolia, accompanied by their Horses, Camels, and Yaks. Below you will find a selection of tours and treks that are offered as fixed departures. They are very much similar in service level to any Himalayan trek, the difference being that we travel and ride with Mongolian local herdsmen, their animals, be it camels, yaks or horse. The type of animal support is determined by the lifestyle of each Mongolian region. All equipment and luggage’s will be loaded on to the traditional carts or on to the back of pack-animals. Camel carts are usually used in the more arid Gobi areas, and but also in true steppe. Yak carts, are used mostly in northern areas where precipitation is higher. Certainly, yaks in Arhangai and Northern Töv provinces. In high elevation mountain terrain, we use pack-animals. Such as pack-camels in the remote Altai Mountains in the Western Mongolia, slopes being too steep for carts. We usually trek or ride no more than 15-20 km a day if over level ground. And shorter in the mountain areas. We provide tents and bed cots, reliant on trip with full bedding. Please, enquire and read carefully if sleeping bag is needed for your trek or not. We usually use full stand-up Tentipi (tepee from Scandinavia) in Gobi areas, and on northern areas Marmot Limestone 6p full stand up tent’s, shared by two people. On some expeditions, Hilleberg three-person tunnel tents, shared by two members. A ger (yurt) is usually brought along as a “mobile restaurant” if there are 6 or more participant’s in the group. Our standards are maximum of ten members in one group, to keep the experience small and intimate. The camel trek is partly ger-based, why max number of participants are eight members. While the yak trek is fully Tentipi based, why the max number of travelers are ten people.
