This "Nomad's Trail" is our newest, most varied and longest motorcycle tour, 2100km over 9-days riding, with maximum off-road. It is our only itinerary that has mixed accommodation along the way: the ger camps we have chosen are in beautiful and dramatic locations, whilst the nights camping in tents are in unique places where tourists never travel. The circular route passes through Kharkhorin, ancient capital of Mongolia, through fertile Arkhangai province where the nomadic people have yaks and horses, past the White Lake then northwards to mountainous Khovsgol region.
- The Khorgo volcano last errupted 20,000 years ago.
- Pike, Taimen and Lenok are the main fish found in the White Lake.
- Sharga Lake is a clear freshwater lake with few nutrients to sustain life.
- Ugii Lake is a stopover lake for migrating waterbirds.
