Exciting day ahead! We will start riding to the biggest sand dunes in Mongolia. You will experience how amazing it is to ride an enduro bike in the endless steppes of Mongolia. Onthe way we will stop by at Yoliin Am Canyon which is full of glacier almost all year round.This national park area is a home to many animals such as Gobi bear, the world famous argali sheep and many others. Once we reach the dunes, we spend the night in our tents right next to the sand mountains, the beginnings of the Gobi desert. Bon fire and a delicious BBQ are following, rounded up by an unbeatable carpet of stars at night time.

You can enjoy riding in the sand dunes in the morning before we are setting off to the breathtaking Flaming cliffs, where many important dinosaur fossils and eggs been found. Be prepared to see one of the most spectacular sunsets and sunrises Mongolia has to offer. We will sleep at the Gobi Oasis 2 ger camp, only 10min ride away from the cliffs.

We will start riding through nothing but open, dry plains. Adrenalin is guaranteed while gassing towards the seemingly endless horizon. Overnight stay will be in our tents, right by the side of Ongi river. The Ongi Monastery, built in 1660, was the biggest monastery in Mongolia and is close by too, walking distance.

It’s going to be a long and exciting ride. We will go to the famous Rocks of Baga Gazarwhere you can admire beautiful granite rock formations surrounded by a plateau landscape.We will sleep in our tents in the open wild.

We will head to our final destination, the National Park Zorgol Khairkhan where we will set up our camp close to some stunning rock formations. We will visit our Nomadic family that afternoon who are living down the mountain together with their kids, goats and horses. One last bon fire in the open wild that night.

After having returned to Ulaanbaatar, you will have a short break and shower time at Viva City Hotel 3* (unless you have selected a different hotel during your booking) right next to our showroom.
