Arrive in   'Ulaanbaatar' and go to hotel. Evening meet the tour leader and rest of group for pre tour meeting. The meeting is about the day by day itinerary and safety issues. Overnight in hotel.

Meet the tour crew and allocate motorbikes. Start riding along a potholed tarmac road to reach the village of "Gachuurt". Following the "Tuul" river for several km's, the road quickly becomes very poor, rough and   'Rocky', with mountains either side. Heading uphill through pine and silver birch forest, cross two mountain passes at over 1800 meters altitude, then down into the valley to the village of   'Terelj' . There are many tourist ger camps and hotels in this beautiful valley. Stop to visit the amazing silver statue of   'Genghis Khan' on a horse and visit the museum located in the base of the statue. Continue eastwards riding through typical lush green meadows and hills inhabited only by nomadic families with their herds of animals. Overnight camping.

After the coal mining town of  'Baga Nuur' we ride parallel to the Kherlen river for a while and along a long flat valley before reaching the village of Tsenkhermandal. After a few km's on the new black-topped “Millennium Road” we turn southwards, back onto the hard-pack track. We come upon the rather surprising health spa   'Avaraga Toson' where many local people go to bathe and heal various ailments. Not far from this “holiday village” is a statue marking the place where the first book describing the history of Mongolia was written:   'The Secret History'  of the Mongols. Continue in a south-westerly direction until reaching the wide "Kherlen" River.  'Wooden' bridges are quite exciting and make for some good photographs. Overnight camping.
