Horse Riding in Mongolia with Across the Divide

About Mongolia

Print this panel email to a friend

Mongolia is the king of horse countries, where snow-covered mountains mingle with the desert. It is a country of contrast with a vast sea of green grass on the steppes, to the ochre sand dunes of the Gobi desert. It is known as the “Land of the Blue Sky” and is a remarkably sunny country. Grasslands and deserts provide habitats for wildlife species such as the snow leopard, the Gobi bear, wild camel, and wild horse.

Mongolia’s name invokes images of Genghis Khan’s horde galloping through endless steppe and of the nomadic warriors who inspired awe and fear in the Western World. The Great Mongol Empire of the 13th and 14th century stretched from the Danube to the Yellow River and became the largest empire in the History of the World.

Mongolia Charity Trek

Out trek takes place in the open steppe land of Gorkhi-Terelj National Park, surrounded by local mountains with imaginative names like the Golden Blanket Mountain, Speckled Snow Capped Mountain, Hairy Topped Mountain and Snow Capped Mountain. As well as stunning Mongolian scenery and wildlife, participants will get to experience the Mongolian nomadic culture and a way of life that is disappearing rapidly as western culture arrives on the steppe.
