MONGOLIA
KHORIDOL SARIDAG MOUNTAINS
NORTHERN MONGOLIA
MOUNTAIN BIKE TOUR

This 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.
