Walking Tours in Mongolia |
|
Have you already trekked around the world and are
looking for somewhere different for your next hiking
vacation ? How about a walking holiday in Mongolia
? Our treks in Mongolia are in the most remote and
beautiful parts of the country - Lake Khovsgol,
the Altai and Khangai mountains. Our hiking vacations
are usually 10 - 14 days and our prices are competitive,
starting from € 1095 each for a group of 4
people. We do small group treks for up to 12 people,
and tailor-made walking holidays for school groups
and charity challenges.

During the 2008 season we have several
scheduled group vacations in Mongolia, suitable
for people of different abilities and interests:
Mount Kharkhiraa Trek 17 - 29 June 2008 in Western Mongolia 13 days hiking
vacation including 8 continuous days of trekking
up to altitudes of nearly 3000 metres in
the remote Altai mountains. The trek is graded
as "moderate" and requires a good level
of fitness.
Total Eclipse of the Sun: 24 July - 05 August 2008 in Western Mongolia. This lovely 6 day trek using pack camels and local guides ends in line for a complete view of this unusual phenomenon. A narrow belt near the Mongolian / Russian / Chinese border is likely to be one of the best places in the world to see the eclipse.
Naadam Festival 06
- 14 July 2008 is a nine day holiday in Central Mongolia,
the highlight of which is the annual sporting
festival which we will join in one of the
small towns of Arkhangai province. This trip is
not a continuous trek, but allows time for individuals
to enjoy short day hikes at each of the beautiful
places where we stay. |

Our
Tour Grading |
|

Most of our
treks are classed as moderate, which means they
can be enjoyed by anyone who is reasonably fit and
takes regular exercise. Daily walking distances
vary from 15 - 25 km, and some treks have a support
vehicle. Your main baggage will be carried by jeep,
horse or camel. Altitude is not usually a problem
as we are trekking at below 3000 metres.
