BAGA KHENTY BIKING DAY TRIP (Mountain biking)

OVERVIEW

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 bike 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.

Epic Day Riding the Steppe with Samba!
We booked easily online and the info was all accurate and helpful. Samba met us with a sign right at the train. Got us a good breakfast then he and the friendly driver took us out to the Genghis Khan Monument. Not only did they tune in to our comfort, prep, safety and skills; Samba is an amazing Ambassador for his country; full of knowledge as an educator, too!
The excursion plan has a nice balance of sharing the area, history and culture without feeling rushed or that you are missing out on the ride aspect of the adventure. What an adventure we had! We were unprepared for the spectacular beauty or the thrilling interactions with herds on the steppe. Samba went above and beyond in all things and made sure that the ride he planned fit us and our travel profile, such a keen sense for that. He fine tuned my bike seat, took pics, shared great stories, even cleaned out my shoes after a bit of a mud foot bath (no extra charge!) was the cost of my one shortcut.
What stood out was how capable Samba was at ensuring that every aspect of our visit turned out well, even helping us plan the following day with his local insights. The driver tailed us on the ride, managed lunch, water, gear then together they dropped us at the door of our (out of the way) Airbnb which we truly appreciated.
You cannot go wrong with this quality outfitter and Samba, our new friend in Mongolia!

A great bike tour!

When I've decided to go to Mongolia I couldn't imagine that I would have spent one of the most amazing experience of my life!
A gorgeous nature and - not secondary - a fantastic team of people that made this tour extraordinary.
I want to say thank you to the boss Batbayar, but also to Temuulen and all the Mongolia trekking guys that proved to be serious professionist and very nice people always ready to help you when you needed it and to joke to keep the mood light, serene and fun!
If you plan to go to Mongolia contact Mongolia trekking they will surprise you!
Thank you Batbayar!

I headed off for a mountain bike ride with my guide Nara. As the tour notes stated we started off at the Chinggis Khan statue and headed into the valleys. Within 8km we were in remote areas surrounded only by sheep, goats, yaks cattle, the odd herdsman, and passing by a few nomadic gers. We had a picnic lunch near a small spring where young cattle were taking a drink, before setting off on a more gentle ride through the valley floor. The guides carried plenty of water for us which was lucky as on a 48km ride we needed some hydration.

 
The organisation was excellent I was picked up and dropped off at the hotel, the guides knowledgeable, mountain bike was good quality and the hospitality great. Would certainly use Batbayar and the company again.
