This trek is the perfect combination of trekking in the High Altai Mountain and a Horse Riding Adventure. We dedicate this two-week trek to the devoted trekkers and mountaineers. The trip takes you to the most western point of Mongolia, the majestic Mongol Altai mountains, the country’s largest and highest mountain range, with glacier topped peaks over 3000 meters, crystal clear mountain rivers, and glistening streams inhabited by the world’s largest wild sheep. You might also catch a glimpse of Argali, ibex, snow leopard, wolves, eagles, and many other bird species.
The name Altai Tavan Bogd (Five Holy Peaks of Altai) was given to a cluster of 5 dramatic peaks that tower this extensive Mongol Altai mountain range. The climate is extreme, with very little vegetation, giving the surrounding landscape a barren appearance. A trekking session leads us to the holy 5 peaks, the highest of which is Khuiten peak at 4374m. We will trek through the snowy mountains and cross the longest glaciers of the country.
After a fascinating trek, we will make a 3-day horse trekking journey through the colorful valleys, towards the most beautiful lakes of the area. On the way, we will visit local families of Kazakh, Tuva, and Khoton minority groups. We will take short breaks while exploring their lifestyle and customs as well as engaging in friendly talks with them.
