For an unforgettable outdoor adventure, join us on a trek through the magnificent Altai Mountains, located at the borders of Russia, China, and Mongolia. One of the last untouched wilderness areas of Asia, the stunning beauty of these peaks - Mongolia's highest, with several reaching upwards of 14,000 feet - will be the backdrop of our journey. Western Mongolia is still relatively unexplored and this expedition offers active travelers a unique opportunity to trek among the region’s snow-capped mountains and camp beside pristine rivers and lakes.
Highlights include trekking through the foothills of Tsambagarav Mountain, exploring the forests of the Maraat Valley, and visiting peaceful Tolbo Lake. Traveling through this spectacular landscape, there will be opportunities to interact with local nomadic Kazakh families and experience the unique culture that has been preserved in this remarkable and isolated part of the world.

Visit Kazakh and Uuld families in their traditional gers, felt tents decorated in a dazzling mosaic of colors
Trek for 5-7 hours a day through spectacular mountain scenery
Experience the striking beauty of the snow-capped Altai Mountains
Camp along the shoreline of Tolbo Lake, visiting Kazakh nomads who hunt with Golden Eagles
