Riding here is not an activity added to a tour. It is the transport the landscape was shaped around.
Mongolian horses are small, hardy, forward-going and semi-feral for much of the year. They belong to the families who ride them, and on these journeys those families ride with us. That is the difference between a trek and a tourist experience: the horses go home at the end, and so do the horsemen, and both know the ground better than any map does.
Every one of these can be run privately and adjusted in length, pace and season.
Ride the Khukhuur Steppe, spend time with nomadic herders and continue to Dadal, the homeland associated with the early life of Chinggis Khan.
A true traverse from Karakorum to a volcanic lake basin closed to vehicles, on horses belonging to the family who ride them the rest of the year.
A remote journey toward the northern taiga, combining vehicle travel, horse-supported access and respectful time with reindeer-herding communities.
The standards behind every journey in this collection.
Horses provided by the herding families who keep them, ridden alongside the people who train them.
We tell you how many hours in the saddle, on what terrain, at what pace, before you book — and we grade the journey accordingly.
A support vehicle where the terrain allows one and pack animals where it does not, so you are not carrying your own load.
Loads, hours and rest are decided by the horsemen. A guide who overrides them is not working for us for long.
Most travellers combine two. Tell us which two and we will build the route around them.
Tell us what you actually want to see and we will tell you when it is possible and what it asks of you.
