Join us on a journey of discovery to a region few people have visited. We’re heading to Altai Tavan Bogd National Park, which features beautiful lakes, snow-capped peaks, glaciers, and lush valleys. We’ll pack our camping gear onto horses and camels and hike through this beautiful landscape for nine days.
Mongolia, with a population of just under four million, is one of the world’s most vast and sparsely populated countries. About 30 percent of the population still lives as nomads, and although the country is often associated with endless steppes and open landscapes, it has much more to offer. The landscape is diverse, featuring dramatic mountains, lush forests, crystal-clear lakes, and vast deserts.
The adventure begins in the capital, Ulaanbaatar, where we’ll spend the first day on a city tour to get to know the city. The next day, we’ll head to Gorkhi-Terelj National Park, where we’ll visit, among other things, the impressive Genghis Khan statue - the world’s largest equestrian statue, standing a full 40 meters tall.
We then fly west to Altai Tavan Bogd National Park to begin our nine-day hike into Mongolia’s untouched wilderness. Here, horses and camels will carry our luggage, while an experienced team sets up camp and prepares meals.
Along the way, we’ll meet nomads and local families who still practice falconry - a tradition dating back 6000 years. We’ll also have the opportunity to spend the night in traditional Mongolian gers (yurts). The trek culminates with the ascent of one of the national park’s sacred mountains: Malchin Peak (4050 m), located on the border with Russia. The trip will give you the feeling of being on an adventure far off the beaten path.
This trip is perfect for anyone seeking an exotic and unforgettable wilderness experience, with a unique combination of challenges, culture, and stunning natural beauty!

We arrive in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia's capital, a city that combines both tradition and modern development. It is located in a valley between the impressive Khentii Mountains and the steppes of the central Mongolian region. The city is the cultural and economic center of the country, with a population of over 1 million people. We check into our hotel and spend the morning exploring the city together. The afternoon will be free for your own leisure, and a short rest at the hotel might be tempting after a long flight with the time difference. We will gather for a group dinner in the evening, where we will have the chance to get to know each other better.

Today we will head out of the city toward Gorkhi-Terelj National Park. We travel early in the morning and drive through a beautiful valley with pine trees, granite rocks, and animals grazing on flower meadows by the riverbed. One of today's highlights is the massive statue of Genghis Khan looking out over the landscape. We will climb to the top of the statue and take in the impressive view. We will also visit the museum to learn about the great Mongolian Empire, a temple at the foot of the mountain, as well as the impressive Turtle Rock rock formation. We will have lunch at a restaurant along the way and return to the city before dinner time. The evening is at your own leisure.

Today we travel by domestic flight to the city of Olgii (1700 m) in the far west of Mongolia. This is the capital of the Bayan-Olgii province. Unlike the rest of Mongolia, which is governed by Khalkha Mongols, Bayan-Olgii has a Kazakh majority where almost everyone is Muslim. At the airport, we will be met by our local team, who will take us on a trip out into the stunning wilderness. We will take a beautiful off-road drive into Altai Tavan Bogd National Park, to the lakes Khurgan and Khoton (2100 m). These lakes are both large and clear, with a natural deep channel between them. The surroundings around the lakes are impressive, with snow-capped mountains as a backdrop. Here we will have our first overnight stay in tents.

We help pack up the camp before starting to walk along Khoton Lake, a gorgeous view for our first day of hiking in this exciting country. We come across a river and continue toward Lake Nogoon, where we will set up camp. A relatively easy first day. The exact length of the stage will depend on where we camped the first night. That is all part of the adventure :)

From Nogoon Lake, we have a gentle climb ahead of us, and we cross several small grazing areas and rivers along the way. The open plain landscape features high mountains on both sides. This landscape will gradually change as we enter the narrow Tsagaan Us Valley. The mountains come closer, and we enter deep green forests in the valley. The route is relatively easy, with some hilly terrain.

The route from the Tsagaan Us Valley to the Baavgai Valley takes you through impressive landscapes in the Altai Mountains. We begin our hike along a gorgeous turquoise glacier river. Eventually, we head up the hillside and into the higher-elevation Baavgai Valley. This section can be challenging with some uneven terrain, but we walk at a gentle pace and enjoy the views looking down at the river below. On this leg, we truly get to experience the wild and remote nature of Mongolia. From our tent camp, we can take in the mountain views and the tranquil atmosphere deep in the Mongolian wilderness.

Today's route begins with a gradual climb from the Baavgai Valley up toward the Takhilt Pass, which offers a great view over this mighty landscape. We have lunch and enjoy the scenery before winding our way down the rocky trail from the pass. We might be passed by our local team, giving us a chance to see how the camels impressively negotiate the winding path down. We may feel that the air is thinner, but we have plenty of time. There can be snow on this leg, even in summer. Eventually, we make our way down to local nomads and set up camp not far from them.

"Today's stage takes us across plains past the Shiveet Mountains, where the terrain eventually opens up again to reveal another beautiful view toward an area where the Tuvan people have their summer camp, a small village of gers with even a tiny 'shop' selling snacks and drinks. For those with a bit of extra energy, there is an option to take a short detour around Shiveet Mountain before descending the rocky slopes down toward the river and the village. Alternatively, you can take a short afternoon hike up to some lovely lakes above the village.

We start the day walking through the village and up a steep slope toward another steppe landscape between the mountains. Along the way, you might encounter herds of yak and horse herders living in the area. By now, we begin to feel that we are approaching the great white mountains, and after a good stretch of walking, a view unfolds that we didn't expect: the entire Potanin Glacier lies before us, along with all the highest peaks in Mongolia, including Malchin Peak, which we will climb over the next two days. There is still a fair distance to go to Base Camp, located right by the Potanin Glacier, part of the majestic Tavan Bogd mountain massif. We will stay here for two nights and enjoy the surrounding area.

This will be a reserve day, an alternative day to use for the summit attempt on Malchin Peak in case of bad weather, giving us two days at our disposal. The day can be spent doing whatever you feel like, whether just relaxing in camp or taking short walks up toward the glacier or the peaks behind the camp.

After a hearty breakfast, we will go on a peak trek to Malchin Peak, which lies right on the border with Russia. We will not be walking on the glacier itself, but rather moving along the north side of the Potanin Glacier. It eventually becomes steeper, and we will walk on rocky ground. Near the summit, there may be snow, though we will not need any extra equipment. The peak sits at over 4,000 meters above sea level, and we will move at a steady pace toward the top. This provides good preparation for climbing its big brother the following day. We hike through a high-mountain landscape with views of the glacier and the other surrounding peaks. From the summit of the mountain, the view is formidable—we can see into Russia on one side and China on the other.

We pack up our gear at Base Camp and stroll up to the nearest viewpoint, where our drivers are waiting for us. Another bumpy and dusty drive awaits on our way back to Olgii, with opportunities to visit a Kazakh eagle-hunting family along the route. Back in Olgii, we get a long-awaited shower before enjoying a traditional dinner to wrap up our stay. It will feel great to sleep in a bed again. Such an adventure to digest, just think that we have been trekking in these desolate mountains of Mongolia, so close to the borders of both China and Russia.

For departures with Norrøna Adventure guides:
On our trips, it is important to understand that we often will be traveling far off the beaten track. We will, of course, do everything we can to assist if anything should happen, but a potential rescue operation can be demanding. It is therefore extremely important that all participants arrive well-prepared and ready to handle unforeseen situations.
Some segments of the journey may prove challenging. It's essential to possess a solid level of fitness prior to departure. Persistence will be required in reaching the trip's goal.
We overnight in tents. We are usually served food, but may have to contribute with cooking on certain occasions.
Activities/trips with some risk. Certain incidents may occur, and they may be of such a nature that they may require professional help.
The most challenging day, the ascent of Malchin Peak (4374 m), can take up to 10 hours. You can easily take a more leisurely hike on this day and still get just as much out of this trip to Mongolia.
You should be an experienced hiker and in generally good physical condition to participate, and it’s a big advantage to have hiked in the mountains before. Experience with longer hikes in the mountains—whether hiking from cabin to cabin or camping in mountainous areas - is good preparation.
If you’d like a little extra inspiration before departure, you can watch the series *Jens in Mongolia* on NRK. Here, you’ll get to join “an adventurous journey through a fantastic country with hospitable people, unique nature, and a rich culture.”
Before embarking on our journey together, we kindly remind all trip participants to check their respective country's visa status and vaccination requirements. Ensuring your travel documents are in order is a crucial step in guaranteeing a smooth and hassle-free adventure.
Norwegian citizens do not need a visa to travel to Mongolia. Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months after your return. See also the current entry and visa regulations on the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' country pages.
If you are over 67 years old, you should have a thorough medical check-up before your trip. Make your doctor aware that this is a trip involving physical exertion and moving off the beaten track.
It is important that you complete all parts of the registration form (especially where we ask for information about health and allergies), and let us know if there is anything we need to be aware of prior to and during the trip. Relevant health information that may affect the trip should also be communicated to the guide at the start of the trip. *Note* - If you are on regular medication, have known allergies or anything similar, you must always bring your personal medication with you.
See the overview on FHI´s pages on travel health advice. For vaccination and guidance, please contact Sentrum Reisemedisin: Reisemedisin.no.
For trips where flights are not included, please check our website to confirm that the departure is guaranteed before booking your own plane tickets. For each trip, we require a minimum number of confirmed participants before the departure can be guaranteed.
We’ll stay at hotels in Ulan Bator and Olgii. During the hike, we’ll spend one night in a Mongolian ger (yurt) and the rest in tents.
It is not always easy to get hold of gluten-free wholemeal bread, lactose-free alternatives or to accommodate other food preferences. If you have any allergies, please let us know in the registration form and we will try to accommodate you as best we can. However, we would still recommend that anyone with special dietary needs bring some alternatives in the form of, for example, a packet of crispbread, energy bars or similar that you know you can eat.

Great trip and a fantastic experience
– Audun, 2025
The landscape is outstanding; resting your eyes on green plains, fine ridges, and eventually alpine mountains with wild rivers winding down the valley floor. Friendly and cheerful people, plenty of warmth, and wonderful cultural elements. A delight of a group to travel with and great guides—highly recommended!
