Horse Tour Itinerary




Day 1 Ulaanbaatar

After landing you'll be picked up by one of our Followthetracks/SIXT staff members - simply look out for the sign in the arrival hall. You'll be brought to a 3* hotel in Ulaanbaatar and handed out a local SIM card with call and internet package. Explore the vibrant City of Ulaanbaatar before the road adventure starts.









Day 2-3 White Stupa & Canyon

You will drive a paved road to southern Mongolia before leaving the beaten paths and going off-road for the following days. The Followthetracks app will guide you to some incredible places like White Stupa and Yolyn Am Canyon where you'll get used to the wilderness in a blink of an eye. Sit around the camp fire and let your soul wander off under a crystal clear sky.









Day 4-5 Flaming Cliffs & Gobi

Next stop: Flaming Cliffs – an incredible cliff structure which looks like it is on fire when the sun sets. At Khongoryn Els you have the chance to ride camels and photograph them during sunset in the desert. Meet Zorigoo – the camel herder – from Max Masterclass videos.









Day 6-7 Buuntsaagan Lake

After an adventurous night in another canyon overlooking Gobi Desert, you will find yourself camping next to Buuntsaagan Lake, a unique place which attracts thousands of birds, horses and camels. Get ready for a long trip across the steppes.









Day 8-9 Steppes & Khovd

It might sound strange to you but the most amazing part of traveling across Mongolia is the drive through the endless steppes, seeing the landscapes change quickly and forgetting about the rush and stress at home to clear your mind completely. You will also meet a real nomad family, stay with them, help them herd the animals and learn about their culture and music.







Day 10-12 Altai & Eagle Hunters

Snowy peaks await you in the Altai Mountains where you’ll stay with the legendary eagle hunters and get introduced to their Kazakh food and music. Ride horses, watch the eagle hunter training their majestic birds and get amazing portraits during sunset and sunrise. The last night you’ll spend in the capital of the region, Ulgii.









Day 13-15 Altan Els

It's time to head north and to discover the lakes and treasures of this almost secret part of Mongolia - no tourists go there, so this is where your wild heart will love it the most. Along the way you will pass also Altan Els, the northernmost sand dunes on the planet and home to dozens of wild life species, undisturbed and truly wild.









Day 16-18 Khuvsgul Lake

You reached the northernmost point of your journey - the majestic Khuvsgul lake which is is the largest freshwater lake in Mongolia by volume and second largest by area holding 2% of the world's fresh water. Rest around the "Younger sister of Lake Baikal" and enjoy the scenic views over one of Mongolia's most beautiful places.









Day 19-21 Karakorum

It's almost the end of your trip, but there is a whole different Mongolia still waiting for you. Visit Mongolia’s highest waterfalls in Orkhon Valley and the famous Monastery in Kharkhorin (Karakorum), the former capital of Chinggis Khan's empire, to embrace the rich, cultural facette of this magical place. On the way back to Ulan Bator you will stop at Elsen Tasarkhai, a sand dune surrounded by mountains and a lake where you can wake up being surrounded by grazing horses.









Day 22 Ulaanbaatar & Departure

Even the most amazing trip will eventually come to an end, so visit Ulaanbaatar again - or ask us to extend your trip: we have plenty of more things for you to do and places to visit! A SIXT / Follow The Tracks staff member will pick you up at your hotel on the day of departure and will bring you safely to the airport.
