Wonderful trips to Mongolia

Tourists make trips to Mongolia every year to visit the rugged peaks of the Altai Mountains and the vast plains and canyons of the Gobi desert. These two are only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to all the fun outdoor activities and the wonderful places you can go to while you are there. Just in case these areas were making you take an adventurous trip to Mongolia, you might want to add the following to your to-do list so that you experience this Asian beauty in its entire splendor.

Horse Riding

Mongolian horses are like the European pony in many ways. Their sizes range from average to petite, though what they miss in height they sufficiently make up for in strength and stamina. Mongolia horse riding is an irrevocable part of the Mongolia holidays culture, and this is evident in the numerous activities such as the annual horse racing at Naadam Festivals that are held throughout the country mainly in July and August. The population is also low, making it possible for horse riding to be as fun as it should be since you get exposed to wide expanses of land.

HovsgolNuur

This is the largest fresh water lake in Mongolia, and it is a wonderful sight to behold. Its surreal beauty and clear waters make the area look like a haven of peace. Ride horsesalong the lakeshore and trek inland through pristine larch forests – camping overnight under starry skies in the wilderness. Enjoy the comfort of gers at a lakeside eco-camp at the start and end of your Mongolian journey.

In addition to horseback riding and viewing the serene beauty of HovsgolNuur, you can also go walking amongst the hills ofKhentiNuruu.
