Mongolia's landscape is characterised by mountains in the north and west, the Gobi Desert in the south and vast steppes in between. It experiences harsh, cold winters and very short summers, so riding holidays are only really possible from June to September. Horses are still central to life in the country so an equestrian vacation in Mongolia is just as much a cultural experience as an equine experience. It has been said that Mongolia is a vast place of unexpected and unlikely encounters.
The horses are the small and stocky native breed and the rides are camping or ger based, usually moving on each night with a support crew.
This trail ride takes you to the semi-arid grassland steppes south of Ulaanbaatar. You ride across the Bogdkhan mountains and sand dune areas as well as the giant rock formations of Zorgol Hairhan Uul.
A trail ride through the Khan Khentii Special Protected Area north-east of Ulaanbaatar. Experience two strikingly different areas, from the treeless steppes to the mountain forested taiga of Gorkhi-Terelj National Park.
On these trails, each night you stay in a spacious ger with made up beds rather than the more basic tents of other trails. These more luxurious trails can be in one of two areas, either in the Khan Khentii Special Protected Area north-east of Ulaanbaatar or the vast, treeless steppes south of Ulaanbaatar. Comfortable adventures!
