TERELJ NATIONAL PARK DAY TRIP (hiking, horseback riding)

Booking Steps

OVERVIEW

In just an hour’s driving distance from Ulaanbaatar there lies the Terelj NP, the most easily accessible part of the nearly 2mln hectare Khan Khenty strictly protected area. Terelj, meaning rhododendron is just a tiny but nevertheless a spectacular part of it, a fantastic venue for hiking and horseback riding. Proximity to the capital makes it a popular destination for single day tours. You will find yourself in a wide mountain bowl dotted with rock formations of weird shapes, quite often named after things they resemble. Upon arrival we hike in the park, visit a charming Buddhist temple on a cliff top and optionally take a short horseback riding tour. Lunch will be served in a local holiday resort with some fantastic rock formations as the backdrop. Return to Ulaanbaatar in late afternoon.

Just a long day out if you live in Ulan Bator. The excursion offered beautiful views and the guide was very readable and knowledgeable.

Overnight tour to Terelj National Park
We booked a spontaneous tour to Terelj National Park. Everything was prepared for the next morning. Although we had not specifically asked for it, we even got a German-speaking guide, which allowed our daugther to enjoy the explanations and stories as well!
The accomodation was great and the view was beautiful!
Both our guide and our driver were very nice and flexibly adapted to our family's needs.

Wonderful treks and stay with farming family 
The highlight of my 2 short trips (I was on a business trip) was going up into the hills beyond Terelj National Park with my wonderful guide Nara. I was able to learn so much about the traditional way of life in a short time when staying with a very hospitable farming family. And walking around the hills or steppes near the farm or gur was an awe inspiring experience, The trip up Mt Bogd Khan on a beautiful clear day was also very memorable. Thanks so much Nara and Batbayar! If I come again to Mongolia I would definitely choose Mongolia Trekking to organise another expedition.

One day tour in Terelj

Mongolia Trekking helped us to organize a one-day tour to Terejl National Park. We have been positevely impressed by the professionalism of Batbayar. He helped us to choose the tour we wanted to do by taking into consideration the material we do or do not had.

Temujin, our guide, is also to recommanded. In addition to being very friendly and more than dedicated to the travellers, he knows well the history, culture and society of Mongolia. There is a lot to learn on Mongolia with him and he seems allways happy to share his knowledge with foreigners.
