About this trip
Mongolia doesn't get many visitors, and once you're out on the steppe you'll understand why it feels so far removed from anywhere else. You cycle good trails across open grassland, through larch and pine forest and into big mountain scenery, with nomadic families and their gers scattered across the pasture as your only neighbours.
Camping wild under open skies most nights, this is one of the more intrepid rides on offer, not a gentle pedal. This particular departure is timed around the Naadam Festival in Ulaanbaatar, where you spend two days watching traditional wrestling, archery, horse-riding and bone flicking, with locals turned out in their finest dress.
