  DAY 2

  After allocating the bikes, set off from the city, riding first to   'Nalaikh', then going off-road. The landscape is open and hilly with several low passes to cross. There are some unusual granite rock formations and we stop in such a place at midday. After lunch continue riding to the village of ‘Bayan-Tsagaan’ and set up camp in the surrounding hills.   'Overnight Camping'

  DAY 3

  Ride through ‘Gobi Ugtaal’ village then to the mountains known as   'Ikh Gazariin Chuluu' where the highest peaks are at an altitude of over 1760 meters. This is an amazing place with a dramatic skyline and is a very photogenic place to set up camp.

  DAY 4

  The landscape then becomes more   'Desert like' as we ride southwards in the direction of the Gobi, and the herds of camels are often large. Arrive at   'Mandal-Gobi', capital of Middle Gobi province, in the afternoon, then ride a little further to set up camp on the open steppe. Overnight outdoor camping.The track proceeds towards the dark massif of   "Delgerkhangai" mountain, which we ride towards for several hours before arriving at the village of ‘Delgerkhangai’ at the foot of the mountain. The road winds up into the mountains to the highest pass at 1502 meters altitude. This is another unexpected and exciting mountain range in the middle of the central   'Mongolian Steppe'. Exit the mountains and ride on mainly flat terrain in an increasingly remote wilderness, many tracks of which are not marked on maps at all.

  DAY 5

  We ride parallel with a range of low rocky hills with many holes and caves in. As we approach the northern edge of the Gobi Desert the ground becomes sandy with many pink flowering grasses and 'Zag' (“Saxaul”) trees. This is the true home of the 'Bactrian Camel'. Sometimes the track is sandy, but if it rains this turns to sticky clay making very difficult driving; occasionally the road has been destroyed by rain. Pass beside “Ulaan Khamariin Bulsh” whose red cliffs are an interesting feature on the landscape. Ahead lie the big dark 'Arts Bogdiin Nuruu' mountains. Camp near the village of 'Bogd'.

  DAY 6

  Now travelling northwards, many tracks   'Criss-Cross' the countryside, dividing and re-joining, or going off in another direction. Sometimes the road is in a very poor condition having been   'Partly Destroyed' by flooding, and after rain would be muddy and difficult to ride. Cross a bridge over the “Arguut” river and pass through several small villages before setting up camp in the hills leading to ‘Sant’ village. Overnight camping.

• 26/08/2025 08:30

  DAY 7

  From the village of ‘Sant’ the scenery is pretty with fertile rolling hills and layer upon layer of mountains in the background. Some areas have unusually   'Shaped Rocks' as we ride onward to Erdendalia village. Nowadays most traffic uses the new tarmac road, so in many cases the old tracks we ride on are becoming indistinct and are in a poor condition. Finally we reach   'Zorgol Khairkhan' mountain. Overnight camping.

• 27/08/2025 08:30

  DAY 8

  Beyond Zorgol Khairkhan mountain we ride to Bayan-Unjuul village and through nearby sand dunes. Part of the distance today will be on the   'New Tarmac Road', to arrive in Ulaanbaatar on the east side of the city.   Overnight hotel.
