More about this event
Mongolia Sunrise to Sunset takes place in Hovsgol National Park, one of the world’s most remote and beautiful National Parks in Northern Mongolia, 700km from Mongolia’s capital Ulaanbaatar. It is a week full of exploration and adventure: In the ‘ger camp’ at the shores of stunning Lake Hovsgol, participants experience Mongolia-style living in the cozy gers with environmentally friendly ‘western’ comforts including hot showers and electricity. They explore the raw beauty of Mongolia and get in touch with the culture of the nomadic population – a truly unique experience.
