Camel trekking in the Gobi Desert Camel Caravan Experience / Terelj NF 8 Days 

Bactrian camels are an important livestock and family indispensable for nomads in the South Gobi region. I feel that the process is relaxed and self-reliant. It is stable because it rides between two bumps, so it is easy to ride. While swaying on the back of Bactrian camel, we will cross the magnificent land of the South Gobi, the Moltsog dunes, which are said to move under the influence of the moon. Mr. chef and nomads will accompany you to cook delicious Mongolian food in the Gobi Desert. It is safe even for camel beginners.

What is South Gobi?

When you think of the Gobi Desert, people who don't know it tend to think of a desert like the Sahara Desert, which has no desolate grass, but there are various types of actual Mongolian Gobi. "South Gobi" is a Mongolian word meaning a land with sparse short grass, which is an image of a desert with no desolate vegetation, but in reality it is only 25% of the land area. Camel grazing is most common here. In addition, many fossils of dinosaurs have been excavated in this area, which will arouse the romance of ancient times. The Morzog dunes, about 50km north of the South Gobi airfield, offer a panoramic view of the Gobi Desert image that foreign people envision.

Khongor sand dunes

The Gobi Desert in southern Mongolia. Most of the desert is covered with pebbles and shrubs, but if you drive nearly 200.q from the South Gobi, you will suddenly see a large sand dune. .. The height of this sand dune, which continues like a mountain and looks up forever, is about 50 meters or more. It is a rare terrain with sandy meadows, grass and short trees, and small rivers. We often see camels trekking with tourists on board. This course is to enjoy the moving scenery in this large sand dune, which is said to be 1 in Mongolia. Of course, the gel where you can see the large sand dunes of the accommodation. Staying in the wilderness, with no man-made objects as far as the eye can see, makes you forget about your daily life. You can feel the nature of Mongolia by taking a leisurely stroll through the dunes and gazing at the starry sky at night.

Yoliin Am "valley of the eagle"

Gobi Gurvan mount There is a beautiful place called Yoliin am on Gobi gurvan saihan mount. Yoliin Am means "Valley of the Eagle" in Mongolian. Certainly, an eagle is flying over the valley, and you can understand this place name. The altitude of the valley is as high as 2200m, and snow remains around here even in early summer. As expected, the valley is melted in midsummer but without snow, and it feels cool and comfortable. On a hot summer day, walking through the ice in the valley is interesting. There are also wild sheep and goats, wolves, gobi bears, bald and wild donkeys.

Bayanzag "flaming cliffs"

It is a place known all over the world for finding dinosaur eggs and fossils. For the first time, this area became known around the world by American Andres in the 1920s. Andres unearthed some dinosaur fossils and eggs from here, which are currently on display at the largest museum in the United States. It is also famous for the many rare things found in this area that prove that humans have lived there for millions of years. If you look carefully, you may find fossil fragments of dinosaurs.

Moltsog sand dunes

About 50 km north of the South Gobi airfield, the Moltsog dunes can be seen in such grassland deserts. In this dune, you can see a very beautiful wind pattern, and you can experience walking on the sand that is not so crowded. In addition to walking, there are camels here, so it is interesting to take a walk in the desert while riding a camel. Bactrian camels live in the Gobi region of Mongolia. The hump is made of fat, and when stored in plenty, it weighs more than 50 kg per hump. By converting this stored fat into calories, it is a mysterious animal that can move without eating anything for nearly 10 days.
