MONGOLIA – BAYAN GOBI DESERT

Continue the journey to the Bayan Gobi, a mesmerizing landscape just 100 kilometers away. As we traverse the rugged terrain, we were greeted by the warmth of local hospitality at a traditional camel breeder’s home. Sand dunes, known as ElsenTasarkhai, run for a distance of 200 kilometers. They are considered the Northern most reaches of the Gobi desert. With the stunning back drop of KhognoKhaan Mountain range, this region is home to families of camel herders. The region provides a heartland alternative to the less accessible Gobi Desert in the South.
