HIKING INTO THE GOBI MOUNTAIN LAKE
MULTI-WAY HIKING INTO GOBI MOUNTAIN LAKE
If you have ever wanted to do it all and taking the chance to add another dimension to your passion for discovering another country on foot, this might be the ultimate trip for you. This nineteen-day adventure begins in Western Mongolia for an exploration of the Great Mongol Sands National Park, and makes its way to the Khangai Mountains at the center of the country with many beautiful hiking days.
This journey is not an overly long one, but maximizes your time between discoveries and active time in the most incredible virgin landscapes we selected. Let's embark on a magical experience between light to moderate hikes deep into wildness each featuring its very own beauty and key interests. For the nature lovers, we will bring you between sand dunes, to some of the highest mountains and narrowest canyons of the country, amazing waterfalls and rivers, peaceful forests and lakes. Not only this, you will have a great first immersion into the Mongolian nomadic culture, staying at times with engaged families into eco and cultural projects that we support with our tours. It is a premium, well-supported active journey, specifically designed to maximize your time and joy, as well as sharing with us beautiful stories and useful local social engagement towards the communities.
