Golden Gobi Adventure

This morning, following breakfast at the hotel, our guide and driver will pick you up for a drive to Tsagaan Suvarga in the Dundgovi province.

The site features an impressive eastern slope that resembles the ruins of an ancient city when viewed from afar, making it a fascinating sight.

Tsagaan Suvraga, characterized by its striking 90-degree cliffs, showcases a stunning array of colorful clay deposits.

This morning, we will head to Yol Valley, also known as Vulture Canyon. This stunning deep canyon features numerous rocky cliffs formed over many years of water erosion.

Upon reaching the canyon, we will take on a two-hour hike to explore remnants of a glacier that linger from the winter months.

On our way in or out of the park, we have the opportunity to visit the local Natural History Museum, which showcases fascinating exhibits including dinosaur eggs and bones, petrified trees, and a snow leopard.

Khongor sand dune is one of the largest and most impressive dunes in Mongolia, reaching heights of up to 200 meters, spanning 7-8 kilometers in width, and stretching 180 kilometers in length. The experience of climbing these dunes is awe-inspiring, offering stunning views from the summit.

What surprises many climbers is the melodic sound the dunes produce as you ascend, earning them the nickname “singing dunes”.

Visiting these sand dunes brings a profound sense of comfort and tranquility. Once we arrive, we will have the opportunity to ride camels along the Khongor dunes. The two-humped Bactrian camels provide a smooth and gentle ride, allowing you to sit comfortably between their supportive humps as they stroll leisurely across the sands.

Today, we will journey to the Bayanzag region, often referred to as the "Cradle of Dinosaurs" due to its renowned Flaming Cliffs. It was here, in 1922, that the first nest of dinosaur eggs was uncovered. This remarkable site holds the remains of dinosaurs that thrived in this area 60 million years ago.

As you explore this historic landscape, you will have the opportunity to wander through the very terrain once inhabited by dinosaurs, surrounded by saxaul trees and other distinctive desert flora.

The remarkable granite formations of Baga Gazariin Chuluu, meaning "stone of the little place", can be found in the northwest region of Dundgovi province. Here, you will discover inscriptions left by two revered monks who resided in the area during the 19th century. We will also explore the remnants of a 17th-century temple.

As we venture around, we will notice a deep, narrow hole where rainwater collects, believed to have healing properties for eye ailments. A small ladle rests on the rock, allowing visitors to cleanse their eyes with this sacred water.

Today, we will head to Terelj National Park, celebrated for its breathtaking natural landscapes. This park offers a stunning array of dramatic mountain scenery, towering granite cliffs, lush forests, and meandering rivers, positioning it as one of Mongolia’s most picturesque locations.

Upon our arrival, we will explore the Aryabal Buddhist Meditation Temple, where you can savor a serene and contemplative atmosphere.

From the temple’s summit, the panoramic views of the surrounding park are both awe-inspiring and tranquil. We will also take a moment to visit the iconic Turtle Rock, a distinctive natural formation that resembles a turtle and stands as a popular landmark in the region. The peaceful beauty of the park, along with its remarkable sights, promises to create an unforgettable experience.

This morning, after a delightful breakfast, we will set off on our journey back to the city, making a stop at the impressive Chinggis Khan Equestrian Statue Complex. Towering at 40 meters, this monumental statue pays homage to the iconic Mongolian leader. You will have the opportunity to enjoy lunch at the complex, allowing you to explore and take in the stunning vistas.

After lunch, we will take you to the airport for your departure, concluding your tour.
