South Mongolia - Gobi Desert | Print |

 

The Gobi Desert is actually a multi-diverse environment, ranging from gritty plains, sand dunes, wood forests, sand cliffs (with dinosaur bones sticking out), even glaciers and rugged mountains. Nevertheless, it is a harsh environment, but interspersed with deep fresh water wells, salt lakes. The area is surrounded by mountains with steep passes, in the summer there is still snow from the winter to be found. The area is sparsely populated, yet there are nomads who travel around the Gobi with horses, goats, sheep, and especially camels. 

There are also wild animals like gazelles, Argali (wild mountain goats), antelope, wild ass, the worlds only desert bear, snow leopards and a multitude of eagles, vultures, cranes and other migratory birds, en route to or from summer breeding grounds they descend upon the few lakes for a refill. 

Highlights include:

  • A jeep tour to the Gobi, trekking through the Yolin Am a canyon with snow and ice. Trekking through the sand dunes with a camels, and on the way back trough the old capital Karakhoram.
  • Drive along the banks of salt lakes and sand dunes, to almost 4000m at Ih Bogd Uul, walk alongside glaciers on the mountains and combine this with a trekking through the spectacular forested Khangai mountains.
