MONGOLIA
KHORIDOL SARIDAG MOUNTAINS NORTHERN
MONGOLIA MOUNTAIN BIKE TOURThis
mountain bike tour covers one of the most beautiful parts of Mongolia, the mountains
of Hovsgol province near the northern border with Siberia. Beginning
with a one and a half hour internal flight from Ulaanbaatar, the biking then starts
from the town of Moron. The
route passes over the forested Khoridol Saridag mountains (altitude approximately
3000 metres) and down to the magnificent Hovsgol Lake. Our route follows the shore
of this inland sea southwards to the tiny port of Khatgal, then back to Moron.

The
scenery is varied and remarkable with deep canyons, waterfalls, and a background
of snow-covered peaks. Apart
from the majority Khalkh Mongols there are also some families of the Darkhad ethnic
group living in this area, and further north the Tsaatan "reindeer"
people.
