Roads trip in Mongolia

Experience the Land of Blue Skies with the Nomadic culture of Mongolia

You’ll quickly realize how Mongolia earned the nickname, the “Land of Blue Skies,” as you carve down the Karakoram Highway, and the other desolate highways of the Mongolian steppes! The vast, beautiful emptiness will bring you back in time, closer to nature, and leave you in awe at the end of every day of your Mongolian adventure. If two-wheel travel is not your style, a Mongolia travel agency can assist with a 4×4 off-road trip through the steppes, or another great adventure. Planet Ride offers nothing but top-notch Mongolia motorcycle tours, 4×4 adventures, and other road trip experiences.

Other Need-to-Know Information about Mongolia

Mongolia may not have the quite the historic art and architecture of Europe, or the white sand beaches of the tropics, but the unique history and culture, and especially the gorgeous natural beauty of the land will more than make up for it! The national festivals, such as Naadam and the Golden Eagle festival, are an amazing sight. Naadam, celebrated in mid-July, is Mongolia’s national holiday and aside from general celebration, there is plenty of action in the three “manly” sports – wrestling, horse racing, and archery. The Golden Eagle Festival takes place in early October and is the largest gathering of eagle hunters in the world! Dozens of them put their skills on display, along with a number of traditional games.

The capital of Ulaanbaatar offers plenty to do, including the Bogd Khaan palace, the Gandan Monastery and its enormous statue of Megjid Janraisag, and much more. The art and culture rivals that of any European city, and you’ll have access to numerous art museums, history museums, and the performing arts – opera, ballet, even traditional song and dance ensembles! However, any good Mongolia travel advice will tell you that many of the real highlights of a Mongolia adventure begin outside the city, among the national parks, nature reserves, and isolated countryside. The natural splendor of these landscapes will be all you need. A couple examples are Altai Tavan Bogd National Park, which is home to the tallest mountains and largest glacier in all of Mongolia, the Khongor Sand dunes of Gobi Gurvan Saikhan National Park, and the Takhi wild horses that live in Khustain Nuruu National Park. Your adventure doesn’t have to end with your motorcycle or 4×4 tour. Mongolia offers plenty to do and see, especially in the outdoors. In the countryside, you can choose from trekking, horseback riding, canoeing and more. You might even choose to venture into the gigantic Gobi desert.

Any sort of Mongolian adventure is likely going to begin in Ulaanbaatar, which is the capital of the country, and also the location of Mongolia’s main international airport. However, flights into Ulaanbaatar are limited and you will probably need to catch a flight from another major Asian city, such as Beijing, Hong Kong, Bangkok, Seoul, Istanbul, or Tokyo. Train travel is another option for reaching Mongolia’s neighboring countries and the Trans-Mongolian line is part of the famous Trans-Siberian Railway. Overland by car or motorcycle is certainly another option. You’ll find major highways are paved and in good condition, but the further you stray from these, the more challenging and exciting the riding will become!
