The Reindeer Herders of Hovsgol

The Reindeer Herders of Hovsgol | 19 days

In the far north of Mongolia, hugging the Siberian border, is the lush province of Hovsgol, where yaks and horses graze the shores of Lake Hovsgol against a mountain backdrop. This is the home of the ethnic Tsaatan or reindeer people who farm these majestic animals. You will camp by night and ride by day in search of these nomadic herders. The terrain is varied and the pace can be fast so riding expertise is essential. This is a journey for the adventurer.
