Mountain Biking Day Trip in Baga Khenty Mountains
Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia
The perfect tour for those looking to combine some fun and easy exercise by biking through wooded hillsides and open valleys of Baga Khenty mountains. A short car transfer east of Ulaanbaatar brings you to the giant mounted statue of Chinggis Khan where the biking starts from. While bikes are being readied you can take a panoramic view of the vast steppe from an observation deck on the horses head. You'll cycle at your own pace on peaceful country roads and catch a glimpse of a life that has seemingly not changed for a few hundred years. Large flocks of yaks, sheep and goats roam the area and circular tents of local herders can be seen from time to time. Picnic lunch will be served at the day’s highest point (1750m) with a lush meadow and wooded slopes as the back drop. The rest of the day is a gentle roll across open valley with many nomadic homes dotting the scenery. By 5pm we load bikes and take a 2 hour return transfer to UB.
