Through the steppe

Tour 181

With our MTB tour to the central highlands and Mongolian grass steppe, which leads only on unpaved roads and includes overnight stays in traditional yurts, we have worked out a tour that will inspire every nature-loving biker.
The bike tour will take you to the north and central part of Mongolia. You will experience a lot of grass steppe, challenging passes and various river crossings. All without “exhaust fumes and oncoming traffic”. The balanced weather in summer and the service by our escort team are further highlights of this unusual bike tour in the central part of Asia.
