The Gobi Dessert is the largest dessert in Asia. Many would say
that a journey to Mongolia is not complete without having
ventured into the Gobi. The Gobi is a huge track of sparsely
inhabited land in the south of Mongolia, yet there are still
nomadic families living in semi arid areas, often close to the
few wells and waterholes.
Most visitors venture into the area of the
“Goviin Gurvan Saihan” (The three
beauties of the Gobi) National Park where they visit “Yolin Am”
(the Vulture’s Mouth ice canyon), Khongoryn Els – a vast and
dramatic area of sand dunes and the “The Flaming Cliffs”, (“Bayan
Zag”) made of red sand stone, where still today dinosaur fossils
can be found. We offer some short excursion utilizing
domestic flights, but also longer itineraries taking a long
drive through southern Mongolia.
