This journey will bring us to both desert steppe and mountain areas of the Gobi.  We will also be able to visit the famous Yol Valley, which actually is a ravine, which many years are covered by permanent snow and ice. The Gurvansaikhan Mountains is an extension into the Gobi of the Altais. In the desert steppe we will probably be able to see gazelle and fox.

Brief Outline Itinerary

We will fly back and forward to the Dalanzadgad area in the South Gobi, from where you will be met and transferred to a ger camp (yurt camp). You will make full day excursions from there. Beds, sheets, linen is provided. Toilets and showers are in separate buildings.

Day 1:  Ulaanbaatar

Arrive in the Mongolian capital by train or air.  Transfer to the hotel.

Day 2: To South Gobi

A.m. Early pick up at your hotel in Ulaanbaatar, and transfer to the airport for 1½ hour flight to South Gobi. South Gobi (Ömnögobi) is the least populated province in all Mongolia.

After arrival we will make our way to a Juulchin Gobi Ger Camp, located on the steppes in front of the Gurvansaikhan Mountains. P.m. Visit some local people.

Day 3:  Yol Valley

Today we will visit the Gurvansaikhan Mountains (The Three Beauties) and enter into the core area at the Yol Valley (Yoliin Am). 

We will explore this famous ravine, often with permanent ice and snow.  Lammergeier nest here in season, and we are guaranteed to see them flying over the ravine. On the way out from the mountains we can visit – if open - the local Nature Museum. Finally drive 70 km over the steppes, and stay overnight in the same ger camp. 

Day 4: Gobi steppes

Today a full day excursion will be made to the Moltsog Els (sand dunes) and

Bayanzag

(Flaming Cliffs), where dinosaur remains where unearthed in the 1920s by the expedition of Roy Chapman Andrews. The first fossilized dinosaur eggs known to man. The Gobi is for the most part arid desert steppes, with few sand dunes.  Only 3 percent of the Gobi actually is sand.  We will probably see some wildlife such as gazelles and fox, and also meet local families with their livestock.
