Bogd Khan Uul National Park

Ride to the famous Bogd Khan Uul National park which is the first national park of the world. Protected since 1783 it is home to over 220 types of plants and many animals including grey wolves, marmots and squirrels. It is a rich and enchanting landscape with remains of Mongolia’s Buddhist culture.

The Manzushir Monastery is the highlight of this trek. Destroyed during the communist era it has been partly rebuilt after Mongolia’s independence in the early 90s. This important cultural site will show you the extent of  Buddhism in Mongolia before repression.  Walk through its ruins, visit its museum and learn about its past history.

After the visit of the Bogd Khan Uul National park we will take you in the steppe. Riding your wonderful horse you’ll observe livestock grazing peacefully in Mongolia’s infinite nature. At the end of the day, your guide will introduce you to a nomadic family. And why not sharing a glass of milk tea or airag (fermented mare’s milk)? You will have the opportunity to ask questions and observe this nomadic culture preserved for centuries.

Both nights will be spent under a sky full of stars sharing stories with your guide around a nice Mongolian style meal.

Your trek will end at Stepperiders sharing your adventures with other guests on our terrace. Enjoy a last cup of tea while watching the horsemen herding our horses.

 Duration 3 days and 2 nights
