Wild Stride expeditions Working with local nomads from all over the country, Wild Stride creates authentic action packed Mon Why travel to Mongolia?

Three reasons the people, the nature and the horses. Mongolia is that place that is just that little bit different. The people are polite and charming, the landscapes are pristine and beautiful and you don't even have to like horses to appreciate the spectacle of a hundred wild horses galloping on the open plains.

LONELY PLANET names MONGOLIA its #1 country to visit in 2024 followed by Chile in the fourth position. Lonely Planet says it has awarded Mongolia the gold medal as its ideal for seekers of ‘wide-open spaces, adventures and culture’. Its capital, Ulaanbaatar, is also ‘teeming with people and unique attractions’. Lonely Planet adds: ‘Squeezed between Russia and China, Mongolia seems hard to reach given recent geopolitical events in its two large neighbours. But Mongolia’s doors are open and a tourism campaign has eased visa restrictions through 2025.’ See the article below.
Past participants of the Gobi March in Mongolia are not surprised by the ranking!
The Gobi March 2024 begins on 23 June.

You have got to trust your business partner and this is proof that I (Luke) have trusted Munkh-Od since the beginning. This is a photo from our first ever trip together in Central Mongolia 2017. On a beautiful September afternoon 3 day into the horse trekking section of the trip. Where I enjoying the sunshine and fresh air fell asleep using Munkh-Ods leg as a pillow. Sorry Munkh-Od. Having fun can be tiring and I know I can rely on you to look after me and the rest of the group 😴😁.

𝟮𝟭 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘀 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝗴𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗮 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗱𝗶𝗱𝗻'𝘁 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄:

1. Mongolia is the least densely populated country in the world, with vast open spaces and a population of just over 3 million people.

2. Ulaanbaatar, the capital and largest city of Mongolia, is the coldest national capital globally, with temperatures dropping as low as -40 degrees Celsius (-40 degrees Fahrenheit) in winter.

3. The traditional Mongolian dwelling, known as a ger (or yurt in Russian), has been used for over a thousand years by the nomads of Central Asia.

4. Mongolia is home to the last truly wild horses known as Przewalski's horse or "Takhi." They were once extinct in the wild and have been reintroduced to their natural habitat in Mongolia.

5. The Naadam Festival, celebrated in July, is one of Mongolia's most significant events, showcasing the three "manly sports": wrestling, horse racing, and archery.

6. The Mongolian Death Worm, according to local legend, is a creature purported to live in the Gobi Desert. It is described as a deadly worm that spits acid and emits electric shocks.

7. Mongolia's Gobi Desert is one of the world's largest deserts and a rich dinosaur fossil reservoir. The first-ever dinosaur eggs were discovered there in the 1920s.

8. The Mongol Empire, founded by Genghis Khan in the 13th century, was the largest contiguous land empire in history.

9. Traditional Mongolian music features the Morin Khuur (horsehead fiddle), which produces a sound that is closely associated with the Mongolian nomadic culture.

10. Mongolia uses its own traditional lunar calendar, marking the Mongolian New Year, known as Tsagaan Sar, which translates to "White Moon."

11. Airag, also known as kumis, is a traditional Mongolian beverage made from fermented mare's milk and is considered the national drink.

12. Mongolia has no major water bodies but is home to over 4,000 rivers and lakes, providing essential resources for its pastoral nomadic lifestyle.

13. The Mongolian postal system utilizes a unique address system based on geolocation, reflecting the country's vast rural areas without traditional street names.

14. Genghis Khan, the founder of the Mongol Empire, is revered as a national hero and a symbol of strength and unity in Mongolia.

15. The "Eternal Blue Sky" is a central concept in Tengrism, the ancient belief system of the Mongols, emphasizing the importance of nature and the sky in Mongolian culture.

16. Mongolia's Orkhon Valley is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, containing archaeological remains dating back to the 6th century and representing the evolution of nomadic pastoral traditions.

17. Khövsgöl Nuur is known as "Mongolia's Dark Blue Pearl." It's one of the deepest lakes in Central Asia and holds 70% of Mongolia's fresh water.

18. The Tsaatan, also known as the Dukha, are a small community of reindeer herders living in the northern regions of Mongolia, preserving a unique way of life.

19. Mongolia is one of the sunniest countries in the world, enjoying over 250 sunny days a year, which greatly influences its climate and lifestyle.

20. The Altai Mountains in western Mongolia are home to ancient petroglyphs and burial mounds, providing insight into prehistoric cultures in the region.

21. Despite its historical association with nomadic lifestyles, Mongolia is rapidly urbanizing, with more than half of its population now living in urban areas, particularly in Ulaanbaatar.

Small group tours available June to October 2024! 😁

Central Mongolia in September is the start of Autumn. Much of the grass is browned after the hot summer sun and the tree's pines start to turn yellow. The vibrant greens of early summer are gone but the vast landscapes still hold much of their beauty.

For more information on our tour visit wildstride.org or get in touch by dropping us a message.

See you soon 🇲🇳




Sometime we face tough, harsh winter. We always worry about the local nomads, herders. Pray for them.
