We start the trip to the national park "Khugnu mountain & Tarna''. Commonly it is named by travellers as a ''Mini Gobi'', ''elsentasarkhai''. the destination is situated in about 280km from UB on paved road. Mini gobi is pretty popular area for domestic travellers and foreign tourists. Mini gobi also gives a great chance tourists to see mongolian gobi desert who has no time to go to the south great gobi, because mini gobi contains exact atmosphere and images of gobi desert however it is smaller than south gobi.
Travellers normally do a short camelriding on the dune, taking pictures with camels, horseriding, exploring authentic local nomadic life & culture. There is also a small buddist temple in unique location of ''Khugnu Khan'' mountain.
This place is surrounded by gorgeous sandslope and granite rocky mountains. We could do camelriding and stay in a ger.
We reach "orkhon valley". Orkhon valley is the most touristic and beautifull zone in central part of Mongolia. It is the most common and popular touristic, relaxing and exploring actual nomadic culture, Mongolian culture and historical things.
Orkhon valley is 450km from UB, the national park has a gorgeous and dramatic waterfall, orkhon river and burnt black rocks from errupted volcano lay through the beautifull valley, then along those, nomadic families and tourist camps, domestic animals /yaks, sheep, horses/ also decorate the valley. In summer it is very often rainy and beautifull rainbow comes also very often.
So it is very green and surrounded by forestous mountains. It is really best choice for photographing, horse riding, camping and hiking in this wonderfull park.
In the morning we go to "Tuvkhen" monastery. The monastery is originally constructed more than 300 years ago. The leader of budda religious at that period /Zanabazar/ decided to build up a small temple in the incredible location of beautifull forestous zone of khangai mountain range.
The temple is located on the top of mountain with surrounded gorgeous view, travellers need to walk up around 4km for 1 way to reach there through forest. After this hiking we will drive to hot spa "Tsenkher". However the hot spa has been preserving medical and magical effect for human health. but also it is the wonderfull relaxation point for tourists. Hot spa is natural 86 plus degrees.
There are few luxury tourist camps using hot spa for swimmimg pool and shower, obviously adjusting water temprature. Enjoying in the swimming pool, gazing stars in the clear night sky is amazing there.
After breakfast in the resort of hot spa ''Tsenkher'' We will go to lake ''Ugii''. Driving direction is east -south from the hot spa, it takes around 3 hours considering poor road mood. The lake is rich of fish and birds & surrounded by treeless hills, if weather is nice, camping lakeside is the greatest decision. Starring sunrise & sunset at lakeside is very nice.
There is no high mountains and trees, but also great feelings come to you.
Camping and fishing is great here and morning of the lake is great.
In the morning after breakfast we will drive around 1 hour and reach ancient capital city kharkhorum at the active period of 13th century.
Grandson of Chinggiskhaan Khubilai governed that city and unfornutely he moved capital Kharkhorum of great empire of Mongolia to Beijing in china in the 13th century. To be very honest that city now looks one of typical modern village in Mongolia, but especial thing is there are some historical heritages, monuments from that period and also many tourist camps , guesthouses and new statues, museums which is showing the history related to the 13th century and Mongolian history. It is still touristic place and many tourists visit there every year.
First buddist monastery in Mongolia ''Erdene zuu'' is situated in this town, everyday tourists visit to the monastery. This year /2026/ holds great anniversary of 440 years of ''Erdene zuu'' monastery
It is our last day, we normally drive back to Ulaanbaatar, but if we get up earlier we could pass through national park "Khustai" of wild horses.
Finally we drop off you at your hotel in Ulaanbaatar.
Thank you for spending holiday with us!
