Ride into the Heart of the Altai Join a truly unique 10-day horseback expedition through Mongolia’s remote Altai Mountains — the homeland of Kazakh and Uriankhai nomads. This 6-day fully supported riding adventure blends stunning wilderness, rich nomadic traditions, and the ancient art of eagle hunting, set amid the majestic peaks of western Mongolia. Ride across open steppe and alpine valleys, beside turquoise lakes and snow-capped peaks. Each night, relax in our comfortable tented camps, where our experienced crew prepares fresh meals and takes care of every detail. Meet Kazakh eagle hunters who carry on centuries-old traditions, visit a hidden Buddhist monastery tucked inside a Muslim valley, and ride beneath the sacred Tsengel Khairkhan Mountain (4,000 m) — a place of spiritual power and natural majesty.
This journey offers everything adventure travelers seek: pure landscapes, cultural depth, and the unforgettable freedom of riding across the wild heart of Western Mongolia.
