About this trip

Fifteen days cycling across Mongolian steppe, mountains and forest, well away from anywhere resembling a tourist trail. This is a country where visitors are still rare, and you'll feel that from the moment you leave the roads behind.

You ride good trails across wide-open grassland, through larch and pine forest and into proper mountain scenery, passing nomadic families and their gers along the way. Wild camping under big skies is part of the deal, giving the trip a genuinely adventurous edge.

This sits among the more intrepid rides on offer, built for cyclists who want remoteness and self-sufficiency rather than cafe stops.

What you'll do

  • Cycle wide-open steppe trails across central Mongolia
  • Ride through larch and pine forest into mountain terrain
  • Camp wild under open skies most nights
  • Pass nomadic families and their gers on the grasslands
Good to know
  • Wild camping features heavily, so expect a rougher, more self-sufficient pace than a typical cycling holiday
  • Suited to those wanting genuine remoteness rather than towns and amenities along the way
  • A separate Naadam Festival departure exists if you'd rather time your trip around that
