Overview

Mongolia

The last nomadic state, Mongolia shows the world's lowest density: 2.4 million inhabitants for 600,000 mile². Half living in town, essentially in Ulan Bator, the capital city. The rest live out in the steppe, leading a nomadic way of life.
Bordered by Russia and China, Mongolia was often invaded by its neighbours. Most of the territory is over 3,280 feet high in altitude. In the west, the highest peaks of the Altai chain culminate at 14,100 feet. In the centre, lush grazing lands and conifer forests contrast with the rest. In the east, the steppe is immense. The Gobi desert covers one third of the country.

The geography of the country gives the opportunity to explore very varied desert landscapes.
Share the traditions of the Mongolian nomads around the yurt or on horseback.

cons

The extreme climate leaves only two months favourable to travelling to Mongolia: July and August.
The local installations make it difficult to travel individually.

Our Editorial team's advice

Even though you can obtain a visa once you are there, choose the safe option and apply for it from the UK, before leaving. Domestic transport still being quite chaotic, if you don't want to waste time, we recommend you go with a tour operator from the UK. They will suggest group tours or personalized itineraries, for those in need of freedom.
