The Adventorous Mongolia


Good morning, world! Ever heard of Mongolia? Well, Mongolia is not your standard high-class go-to-the-beach and take-it-easy holiday destination. If you like adventurous travel, love nature and are not afraid of some cultural experiences, Mongolia is definitely the place to go. It is located in east-central Asia, bordered by Russia in the north and China in the south, east and west, making this country unique with the variety of cultures.

If you want to go there, make sure you make an effort to visit Gobi Desert. The Gobi desert is not one massive sand dune. It’s a universe of landscapes; some of them look eerily alien. It is located in South Mongolia and North China. The Gobi is an immense place where dinosaurs once roamed. It’s difficult to do justice to the Gobi on the written page. Take a look at this video and you’ll see what I mean.


Also, do visit the Terelj National Park. It is the most popular destination and the third biggest protected area in Mongolia. It offers a huge number of adventure activities such as rafting, riding, hiking, skiing, camping and mountain biking for you guys to try. To be more updated about the activities that you can do there and other information about the park, you can always visit this link.



As for those who love skiing, you can go to the Sky Resort for a mountain skiing. This small ski resort includes a couple of beginner runs, two chairlifts and full ski services (equipment rental, lessons, cafeteria) and even night skiing! A golf course is also operating here in summer. Skiing is possible between mid-November and March.
