This protected area is world-famous as the successful reintroduction site of the endangered Takhi (Przewalski’s horse), the last truly wild horse species. Travel comfortably with transportation and a knowledgeable guide as you explore Mongolia’s open steppe, forested hills, and diverse wildlife habitats.
