Tour to the Western and Northern Mongolia

Uran Togoo is a striking volcanic hill rising unexpectedly from Mongolia’s wide open steppe. Its smooth, rounded slopes were formed by ancient lava flows, and a short hike to the summit rewards you with sweeping views over endless grasslands dotted with grazing livestock.

The lake and its surroundings are part of Khuvsgul National Park, which protects diverse wildlife, including ibex, moose, and various bird species. Visitors can engage in numerous activities, such as hiking, and horseback riding. In winter, the frozen lake becomes the site of the annual Ice Festival, where locals and tourists participate in traditional games, ice skating, and cultural performances.

Horse riding is part of Mongolia's culture, learning how to ride like Mongols might be challenging but we make it easier. Before we set our journey to the deep forest called Taiga we have to do preparation here.

Lake Khuvsgul, often referred to as the "Blue Pearl of Mongolia," is one of the largest and most pristine freshwater lakes in Asia. Located in northern Mongolia near the Siberian border, the lake stretches over 130 kilometers and is surrounded by the towering Khoridol Saridag Mountains. It contains nearly 70% of Mongolia’s fresh water and is considered sacred by the local people.

The Tsaatan reindeer herders live in the remote taiga of northern Mongolia and are among the last reindeer-herding cultures in the world. Their lifestyle depends entirely on their reindeer for transport, food, and survival. Visitors can stay with Tsaatan families, learn about shamanistic traditions, and experience daily nomadic life. Reaching the area requires trekking or horseback riding, offering a true off-the-grid adventure.

We stay another day to learn more and explore the terrain more.

On the 2nd day with Eagle hunters we learn about their culture and their lifestyle.

Eagle hunting is more than a tradition, it is a way of life that requires exceptional skill and a deep bond between the hunter and the eagle. The training process starts when the eagle is a young chick and involves years of dedication. Eagles are used to hunt foxes, wolves, hares, and other small animals, providing fur and food for the community.
