Product Info

In Mongolian traditions, horses are among the most respected and beloved animals and are considered "spiritual animals." Today, horses still play a major role in Mongolian people's daily lives despite the modernization of this country. An equestrian vacation in Mongolia is just as much of a cultural experience as an equine experience. This horseback riding tour is for all ages and levels. The horse rancher family is located just a half hour away from the city of Ulaanbaatar where you will be driven over to their base ger camp. You will be matched with a horse according to your skill level, and your tour guide will escort you closely. All of the horses are well trained to take you on the journey of the day. There is no better way to take in fresh air and enjoy beautiful Mongolian landscape than riding on a Mongolian horse.
