The Gobi Trails – 6 Days
Mongolia is the ideal place for a horse trip because of its vast steppes, clear sky, stunning mountains, and equestrian heritage. Ulaanbaatar, a cultural center, will be our first stop on this tour before we are whisked away to the stunning steppe region of the nation.
The Steppe is a grassland region that stretches from Hungary in the west via Ukraine and Central Asia to Manchuria in the east, a distance of around 5,000 miles (8,000 km). Since horses could readily cross mountain ranges that separated the steppe into multiple areas, steppe inhabitants could do and did communicate for the majority of known history over the full expanse of the Eurasian grassland

Day 1: Ulaanbaatar – Yoliin Am Gorge
We travel to Yoliin Am Gorge in the stunning Gobi Altai Mountain range this lovely morning. We anticipate traveling 130 meters or 210 kilometers to the camp.
The Lammergeyer vulture, often known as the bearded vulture in Mongolian, inspired the name of the Yoliin Am Gorge. A 5 km long, stony mountain with an altitude of 1800-2100m rises from a deep, narrow canyon (5900-6890 feet). Over the course of the winter, the little stream freezes, forming a magnificent coating of thick ice that we shall encounter.
Day 2: Yoliin Am – Khongor Sand Dunes
Following breakfast, we go to Khongor Sand Dunes, a stunning oasis in the Gobi. We go 180 kilometers (112 miles) to our camp, where we assign cabins. After that, we go to the most stunning Khongor sand dunes. Dinner and a night spent camping in the Gobi Desert.
Day 3: Khongor Sand Dunes – Bayanzag the flaming cliffs
After an early lunch, we leave for the Bayanzag, or blazing cliffs, with the morning free. The 4-hour travel to the attraction is 180 kilometers or 112 miles long. We go to the museum and the cliffs. We then head back to our camp.
Day 4: Bayanzag – DZD town
After breakfast, we travel 90 kilometers (56 miles) through the Gobi Desert to a DZD settlement. We eat lunch at a neighborhood eatery before visiting the town’s New Nature History Museum. Then, we head back to the Gobi Oasis Ger Camp.
Day 5: DZD town – Tsagaan Suvarga
On this lovely day, we travel to Tsagaan Suvarga, the vibrant cliffs of the Gobi, the fabled Asiatic Sea’s former bottom more than 75 million years ago. At the Caravan Serai camp, we arrive.
