Located 55km northeast of Ulaanbaatar, this popular national park is characterised by picturesque alpine scenery. It offers great opportunities for hiking, rock climbing, swimming (in icy-cold water), rafting and horse riding. For hard-core extreme-sports fanatics, there’s skiing and dog-sledding in the depths of winter. The southern section caters to tourists, so it’s hardly pristine (and a bit crowded with ger camps), but hikers and horse riders can easily get away from the hustle and bustle by trekking further north into the park.
