The central grasslands
Arburd sands
Arburd Sands, the northernmost sand dunes of the Gobi, are a reasonable 4 hour drive south from Ulaanbaatar. Combined with the sacred Zorgol Hairhan Mountain, which is 35 km away, this is a fascinating classical Mongol area, not visited by many tourists. As it is in the Gobi grasslands, the pastures are usually good and support many herding families who live in the area.
The nomadic culture is strong here. Many of the locals are keen horse trainers within the Mongol equestrian tradition, which has passed from father to son for millennia.
How to travel there:
Nomadic Journeys has partnered with a number of community members and is pleased to offer the visitor horse rides and ger camp stays here. Arburd Sands is a 4 hour drive south of Ulaanbaatar.

Great place to stay and experience mongolian way of living, no tv, wifi, phone. Just nature and great company of the staff and livestocks of mongolia. The toilet is a hole in the ground covered by a shed. It is clean, but can be smelly to those used to city life. Not hot water supply, inform the staff that you like to hot water half an hour earlier so that they can boil it over camel dung 🙂
