Our 10 Day Gorkhi Terelj National Park Ride in early July is scheduled so that you can include the Nadaam Special after your horseback ride.
The Khentii Wilderness Expedition of 14 days (12 days riding) will be in early September. And our award winning “Wilderness Conservation Adventure” Expedition is planned again for early August. We added two days to this trip when we actively help with wilderness preservation, making it a 12 day ride as well.

Gobi Desert Tours
The dates of our Gobi Desert Tour are arranged so that most of these tours are between our horse treks running from mid-June to mid October. The Gobi tour is becoming popular with our horse riding guests and this schedule allows you to combine a horse trek with a Gobi tour. An additional two Gobi tours (4-9 August, 8-13 Sep) run while our longer Khentii mountain horseback tours are ongoing.
One Gobi Desert Tour is scheduled to include the two day Camel Festival on March 6-7, making this an 8 day tour. Another Gobi Desert Tour is scheduled to take in the one day Yak Festival on May 29, making this desert experience a 7 day tour.
Custom trips can be arranged before and after the scheduled tours at any time of the year providing we can schedule them in. The minimum number of guests for such a tour is two.

Destination Mongolia – Getting there is easy
Mongolia offers amazing natural beauty in its pastoral landscapes and remote wilderness areas alike. But travel to Mongolia, whether from North America, South Pacific or Europe, is far easier than the Western synonym for remoteness – “Outer Mongolia” – suggests. Learn more..
