Eagle Hunters

Welcome to Mongolia! All riders will be picked up from the airport and transferred to a hotel in the city centre, where we will meet the crew and receive a briefing on safety and rules.  Dinner with the crew and overnight stay at a hotel.

All riders will be transferred with the bus out of the city for the start of the adventure.  Our first destination on 2 wheels, is the sand dunes.  Elsen Tasarkhai is an 80km length of the Mongol Els sand dunes, which stretch from the Tuv, Uvurkhangai, and Bulgan provinces all the way west to become part of the Khugnu Khan mountain range. Dinner and overnight stay in a Ger Camp.

Saddle your steed for the steepest Mongolian waterfall, the Orkhon, in Orkhon Valley, a Unesco World Heritage Site.  On the way we’ll stop off in the old Mongolian capital city of Karakorum.  Dinner and overnight stay right at the waterfall in a Ger Camp.

From the waterfall, we will ride mountain and forest tracks to the western part of Mongolia and on to the “Blue” Hot Spring.  On the way, we will stop off at a village to engage with the Nomads and enjoy true Mongolian hospitality and cuisine, before heading for some well deserved relaxation in the natural hot water.  Dinner and overnight stay at the river in a Ger Camp.

This is your opportunity to twist that throttle all the way, past small Soviet towns to one of the purest water lakes in Mongolia, White Lake in the Khangai Mountains.  We’ll stop off at a black market and the dormant Khorgo volcano en route. Dinner and overnight stay in a Ger Camp.

From White Lake we are going to the Black Lake in the Zavkhan province in the western part of Mongolia.  This lake is surrounded by sand and rocky mountains.  We will ride along high mountains and cliffs with stunning landscapes of Zavkhan province. Dinner and overnight stay in a Ger Camp.

Mini Dakar day where you ride to Khyargas lake is one of four lakes which cover more than 1000km² in Mongolia.  Years of rainwater drainage have carved many creeks and chutes leading out of this lake.  On the southern side, the white marble rocks offer spectacular scenery.  Fishing is popular at Khyargas Lake and we’ll have an opportunity to partake as well. Dinner and overnight stay in a Ger Camp.

After yesterdays’ warm-up, it’s off-road endurance proper on this, the toughest day of the trip today! Our route takes us across most spectacular mountains, valleys, open fields and past some magnificent turquoise lakes until we reach Ulgii city where 80% of the Kazakh people live. Dinner and overnight stay in a Ger Camp.

A short ride delivers us to the ancient talents of the eagle hunters and their eagles.  We’ll spend some time with the masters before heading back to Ulgii for the night. Dinner and overnight stay at a hotel.

It is time to end our Tour and take a flight back to Ulaanbaatar. You’ll be transferred to a hotel in Ulaanbaatar to freshen up before being transferred back to the airport for your flight home.
