This exciting 1400km trail through the Central Mongolian provinces passes through beautiful and unusual scenery as well as offering the opportunity to observe Mongolia’s fascinating nomadic lifestyle and ancient culture. Riding through the small town of Kharkhorin,  once the centre of Genghis Khan’s great Mongol Empire, you will visit Erdene Zuu monastery,  the former centre of Buddhism in Mongolia.

Dramatic geographical formations such as the volcanic area in Khorgo National Park,  the sandy shores of the White Lake, the deep gorge at Chuluut and the massive granite mountain a Khogno Khan are quite spectacular.  The ancient sculptures dotted around the countryside are also noteworthy, as is the great Taikhir rock at Ikh Tamir, located in the middle of a flat river plain.
