Mongolia Unbound Tour

Day 1 – Arrival and Welcome

Welcome to Mongolia! Upon arrival, our team will meet you at the airport and take you to your hotel in the heart of Ulaanbaatar, just steps away from Chinggis Haan Square. In the afternoon, you’ll meet our crew and fellow riders for a safety briefing and gear fitting. The evening ends with a warm welcome dinner, setting the tone for the adventure ahead.

Day 2 – Baga Gazar Rocks

Your first ride takes you to the incredible granite formations of Baga Gazariin Chuluu, meaning “small place of stones.” Located in the Dundgovi province at 1,751 meters above sea level, this dramatic landscape of sculpted rocks and canyons rises unexpectedly from the steppe — a perfect start to your Mongolian adventure.

Day 3 – White Stupa

Get ready for a day of pure wonder. The Tsagaan Suvarga, or White Stupa, was once part of an ancient seabed. Over thousands of years, wind and water carved the 400-meter-long limestone cliffs into striking white shapes that resemble giant temples. After rain, the runoff gives the illusion of a massive waterfall — a breathtaking sight you’ll never forget.

Day 4 – Yolyn Am

Yolyn Am, meaning “Valley of the Lammergeier,” is a dramatic gorge hidden in the Gurvan Saikhan Mountains of the Gobi. Its steep rocky walls shelter a cool stream and, in early summer, lingering ice deep inside the canyon. Bearded vultures circle overhead while ibex and argali roam the slopes, making Yolyn Am one of the Gobi’s most surprising and unforgettable landscapes. A wild oasis in the Gobi.

Day 5 – Flaming Cliffs

Bayanzag, known as the Flaming Cliffs, rises from the Gobi in layers of red-orange sandstone that glow at sunset. In 1923, Roy Chapman Andrews’ expedition uncovered landmark dinosaur egg nests here, along with fossils of Protoceratops and Oviraptor. Surrounded by saxaul and open desert, it is one of Mongolia’s most iconic landscapes—a natural wonder and window into the age of dinosaurs.

Day 6 – Ongi Monastery

We ride deeper into the Gobi to the ruins of Ongi Monastery, once one of Mongolia’s largest religious centers, home to over a thousand monks. Set along the Ongi River and surrounded by rugged mountains, it’s an inspiring place for short hikes and quiet reflection amid beautiful views of the desert valley.q

Day 7 – Orhon Waterfall

We continue into the Orhon Valley, a UNESCO World Heritage site, to witness the breathtaking Orhon Waterfall. Dropping 26 meters into a basalt canyon, this natural wonder is surrounded by lush green forests and volcanic cliffs. It’s the perfect setting for photos, exploration, or simply soaking in the peaceful atmosphere.

Day 8 – Tsenher Hot Spring

Next, we ride to the rejuvenating Tsenher Hot Springs, tucked away in a beautiful valley of rolling hills and forests. Unwind in natural mineral pools, surrounded by fresh mountain air and the sounds of nature. It’s a well-deserved rest day that blends comfort and the pure tranquility of Mongolia’s countryside.

Day 10 – Elsen Tasarhai

Today we reach the stunning Elsen Tasarhai dunes — a stretch of golden sand surrounded by rocky hills and steppe grassland. Ride across this unique desert landscape, then wind down with a bonfire evening under the night sky. The shifting dunes and desert silence create a magical atmosphere you’ll never forget.

Day 11 – Hustai National Park

Off to Hustai National Park, home of the reintroduced Przewalski’s Horse, the last true wild horse species. Covering over 50,000 hectares, the park is a sanctuary of rolling hills, rocky cliffs, and open plains. We’ll visit a nomadic family along the way and experience a glimpse of Mongolia’s timeless way of life before setting up camp under the stars.

Day 12 – Ulaanbaatar

We return to the city for a well-deserved rest. After checking in and freshening up, you’ll have time for some souvenir or cashmere shopping. In the evening, we’ll gather for a farewell dinner at one of Ulaanbaatar’s top restaurants, followed by an optional night out exploring the city’s vibrant nightlife.

Day 13 – Departure

After breakfast, we’ll transfer you to the airport for your flight home. Thank you for riding with us — we hope this journey stays with you forever, and we look forward to welcoming you back for your next Mongolian adventure.
