Orkhon Mountain Bike Trip Tour Map
Circular route starting from Ulaanbaatar and drive south-west to Kharkhorin, original capital of Mongolia. Start riding from Tsenkher village along the Orkhon Valley and in the Khangai mountains, back to Kharkhorin. Mongolia is a great place for a mountain biking tour, but it is only suitable for confident riders with off-road experience. Sometimes we will stay in traditional ger camps, but where there are no facilities for tourists so we camp in the wilderness.

The combined use of jeeps and bikes allows us to see a substantial part of Mongolia, with its wild and varied scenery. Daily riding distances vary from 70 - 100 km, therefore stamina is required.
