Day 1 We're off for the luxuriant nature of the Terelj!
Journey to Gorkhi-Terelj National Park, a real gorgeous green setting at the gates of the capital: rocky formations sculpted by erosion, mountains tree-filled with pines, plains scattered with wild flowers and edelweiss, rivers and lakes.
Stop at turtle rock, from where we walk until Aryaval Monastery.
Settling in a very pleasant yurts camp where you can rest.

Day 2 We're off for 5 days of a nomadic life !
We start our hike along the Terelj River in a valley where many breeders live and where yaks graze in total freedom. We pass the first pass of Sandrakh before reaching Mounts Sambartai Khoshuu. Once arrived on the place of our camp, we unload the yaks and put up our yurts with the breeders. We'll spend the night in the yurt like real nomads.
With local breeders and their yaks pulling carts and yurts, we hike during 5 days like nomads in the green valleys of the Gorkhi Terelj National Park.

Day 3 Ruins of a monastery lost in the middle of the forest
We go on in our nomadisation in a remote part of the park where nature will be your one and only companion. About noon, we reach the small Gunj Monastery. Partly destroyed during the Soviet purges, the vestiges of the Monastery of the Princess Gunj are nestled in the heart of the forest of larches. In the afternoon, we reach the Baruunbayan River where we set up our yurts camp.
