Altai Wilderness Horse Trails 18 Days ALTAI WILDERNESS HORSE Altai Wilderness Horse Trails 18 Days ALTAI WILDERNESS HORSE TRAILS ‘The partnerships they have with local families are out of this world. It enables you to be brought into someone's family and neighbourhood in a really special way. Other highlights were the landscapes! And the culture. The remoteness. The lack of other westerners. The variety of scenery in different types of weather.’ Kestrel Henry, Hidden Altai Trails This is a customisable trip. It is adaptable, giving you the freedom to build a unique and personal trip for your chosen date. Upgrade your accommodation for all - or just part - of your trip, slow down the pace with few extra nights here and there or add a few more active adventures along the way. All images used throughout this document were taken either by EL guests or members of the EL team. This is the Mongolia that you will also experience. Altai Wilderness Horse Trails 18 Days Our Altai Wilderness Horse Trails in Brief Meet Baskakhan. Basakhan is a Kazakh eagle hunter and the main trek that forms the centrepiece of the itinerary was designed and put together between EL and Bashakhan. We focus on creating local community partnerships that offer long-term support to the people we work with countrywide and that also allow us to showcase the diversity of skills and knowledge of Mongolian’s in the 21st Century. We have worked with Bashakhan for many years and he was always mentioning this trekking route he would like to focus on and so we have created this experience around the route. It is Bashakhan’s local knowledge is what makes this itinerary so special. You will experience a different more hidden side of the Altai as you trek with Bashakhan from his summer pasture at Tsengel Khairkhan to the Altai Tavan Bogd Lakes of Khoton and Khurgan Nuur. Although this brief description does not do this remarkable region justice - it is unexpectedly beautiful. And off the beaten track. This is the Altai that few others get to see. An alternative to the popular Tsagaan Gol trek. Because of the way we work you’ll get an original insider experience - a more intimate and local introduction to the Altai region - a side that few other travellers get to see and experience.

Yes, the city is chaotic and loud and not as glamorous as other capital cities but it is the beating heart of Mongolia and the hub of contemporary Mongolian urban life. The reality for many Mongolians takes place in this urban context, in a city they are striving to develop and improve. Ulaanbaatar deserves to be appreciated and explored as the urban centre that it is. Our informal and relaxed city walking tour will give you a contrasting insight into a way of life, compared to that of the rural population. This day is not about museums or shopping – it’s about getting out and about and exploring and discovering. Today you’ll spend the day in the company of one of my female Mongolian trip assistants. The day will include Nogoon Nuur (Green Lake) community project - a community space created for the local population of the nearby Bayangol ger districts by Ulzii - a Mongolian philanthropist - as well as other areas of the city including Gandan Monastery. You’ll also have lunch with a local family as well as exploring other areas of the city. Logistics • Accommodation: Of your own choice • Meals: Local lunch and welcome drink • Travel: Free transfer Altai Wilderness Horse Trails 18 Days Day Two Fly Ulgii or Khovd | Tsengel Khairkhan | Kazakh Eagle Hunter Homestay The Bashakhan family Fly out to Ulgii or Khovd - the provincial capitals of western Mongolia - where you will meet your EL team and then head to the home of Kazakh eagle hunter Bashakhan. Together with his family, they move twice a year. In the summer months his pasture is located within the region of the snow-capped Tsengel Khairkhan Mountain. This mountain has an elevation of 3,943m and is one of highest glacier mountains in the Mongol-Altai mountain range. It is unexpectedly beautiful. We leave the rest of the day flexible - you could take a horse trek or spend the day relaxing enjoying the rural way of life of Baskakhan and his family including Hamalgan and Tolhyn - both are talented embroiders and will show you the skill behind this ancient tradition. Altai Wilderness Horse Trails 18 Days Logistics • Accommodation: Basakhan does have an additional ger for guests to stay but please be prepared to be flexible. Alternatively, we always provide tents for each guest and these can be put up next to the family home. Asian style long drop outside toilet. Hot shower at the local town shower house. Your own private cubicle with plenty of hot water. Queue with the locals and enjoy experiencing a little of their daily way of life. • Meals: D * other meals depend on flight time • Travel: Roughly 150km on dirt road (approximately 4 hours driving time not including stops). Averages of between 30 and 65 km/ hr are usual depending on road and weather conditions. Please note, if you fly into Khovd the transfer time is longer. • Flight Departure and Arrival Time TBC. Weight restriction 15kg (10kg check-in and 5kg hand luggage). Hand luggage ‘officially’ restricted to 1-piece. Excess baggage charges are between $4-$7 per kilo depending on the route. Please note that the domestic airline may change the flight time schedule closer to the day of departure Hospitality is a key ingredient in the Kazakh culture. This is the incredible welcome table that typically awaits us at the home of the Kazakh families we stay with - as Kazakh culture dictates, they are warm and generous hosts. At some point during your time in Bayan Ulgii, we hope you will get to try 'Besbarmak', a dish consisting of boiled horse or mutton. This is is one of the most popular Kazakh dishes and is also called 'five fingers' because of the way it is eaten - using your hands. Altai Wilderness Horse Trails 18 Days Day Three - Twelve Altai Horse Trek | Khoton Nuur | Khurgan Nuur ! In the company of Bashakhan and/or his sons Tileukjan or Serikjan - both also eagle hunters - enjoy the wilderness spaces of this glorious region from horse back passing through some of the wildest and most remote scenery in Mongolia. Our treks are different in that we leave the route entirely flexible and in the hands of Basakhan as this leads to a more organic and Kazakh type of exploration. So many trekking experiences offered in Mongolia have rigid routes and itineraries and that just seems wrong in a country of such freedom. Instead, the focus becomes getting to meet and know Bashakhan as you ride alongside him in the areas he considers home. Each night you will set up camp somewhere new, allowing you to experience Mongolia in the true sense of the term nomadic. If you need a rough guide, you will trek over from Tsengel Khairkhan pass the small lake of Khar Nuur and into the Altai Tavan Bogd lakes region. Altai Tavan Bogd Mountains are the highest mountains in Mongolia and the national park can be divided into two regions, the Tavan Bogd Mountains in the northwest and the Lakes Region to the southeast. The lakes are fed by glacial melt and annual snow fall and form the head waters of the Khovd River. Once in the lakes area you you might use one or two locations as a base or carry on as a linear trek. You will head into the mountain forest steppe interior - including the valleys that the local herders use for their summer and winter pastures on the Chinese border. Lake Khoton lies below the snow capped Ikh Turgen Uul. The camp spot here is a mere 3km from the China border.

Pasture is the major food source for livestock grazing, and its productivity is strongly affected by climatic variability. Direct measurement of pasture productivity is time-consuming and difficult, especially in remote areas of a large country like Mongolia with sparse spatial distribution of pasture monitoring. Therefore, model- ing is a valuable tool to simulate pasture productivity.

  • Population and Economic Activities of Ulaanbaatar
    POPULATION AND ECONOMIC ACTIVITIES OF ULAANBAATAR Bayanchimeg Chilkhaasuren, Head of Statistics Department UB. Batbayar Baasankhuu, Chief of Division Economic statistics of Statistics Department UB. POPULATION Urbanization in Mongolia has developed sharply since the second half of the last century and the percentage of people in urban areas from the total population has been increasing. According to the census conducted in 2010, two of every three citizens in Mongolia live in urban areas. Around 44.0% of the total population of Mongolia lived in urban areas in 1969. However, this number increased to 67.9% in 2010. This increase of population of the urban areas of Mongolia within the last decade is approximate to the population increase in 30 years before this decade. According to the urbanization of the population, the majority of people are living in Ulaanbaatar city and Central region. For instance: Darkhan-uul, Dornogobi and South-Gobi where there is better infrastructure systems such as the development of mining and other services and they have tar roads and railways as well as bordering China is also a key of the population attraction. The western area of Mongolia is not under-populated and urbanization is not at an intensive level. The main attractions of urban areas are that the development of social sectors such as production, services, education and health care in Ulaanbaatar city and province centers are better than in rural areas. Therefore, many people are moving to urban areas, which increases the size of the urban population from the total population of Mongolia. The majority of the Mongolian population, around 64.2%, is living only in Ulaanbaatar city.

  • Part I Master Plan
    PART I MASTER PLAN CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION I MASTER PLAN PART I MASTER PLAN CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background of the Study In Mongolia some 50% of the total population of about 2.4 million are nomadic families. For the nomadic families Sum centers are key places for supplying their vital goods, and also for receiving public services such as administration, medical care, education, etc. As of November 1997, the electric power at 117 out of 314 Sum centers in total in Mongolia is being supplied from the national power transmission network. At the remaining 197 Sum centers, the electric power is supplied by the diesel engine generators by Sum center independently. Most of these diesels generating facilities were manufactured during the former Soviet Union era and installed long ago from 1963 to 1990. During the Social Republic era of the country, Mongolia depended on the Soviet Union for the supply of spare parts necessary for maintenance of the generating equipment and technical guidance. Due to the corruption of the Soviet Union's economy in 1991 and associated transition to a market economy, the following four factors caused troubles to the operation and maintenance of the Sum's generating facilities, i.e. (1) the lack of business operating senses, (2) the interruption of spare parts supply, (3) the lack of technical capability and (4) shortage of management budget. The operation of much equipment has been obliged to be kept stopped after failure, as operators cannot repair them. The affected generation quantity, and aggravated the conditions of daily lives of people in Sum center and caused serious effects to the socio-economic activities of the Sum centers.

  • Country Analysis Paper <Mongolia>
    Fourth Regional 3R Forum in Asia “3Rs in the Context of Rio+20 Outcomes – The Future We Want” Ha Noi, Viet Nam, 18-20 March 2013 Country Analysis Paper (Draft) <Mongolia > ------------------------------------- This country analysis paper was prepared by Mongolia as an input for the Fourth Regional 3R Forum in Asia. The views expressed herein do not necessarily reflect the views of the United Nations. MONGOLIA: Waste Management Country Report The Government of Mongolia attaches a high priority to sustainable development and low carbon green growth. About 2 percent of gross domestic product (GDP) is allocated annually for the environmental protection including energy efficiency, sustainable use of resources, and reduction of environmental pollution and promotion of environmental public education programs. In 2011, GDP was 10.8 billion USD. Even with a population that accounts for only 0.04% of the total world population, Mongolia is a leader in economic growth. Mongolia experienced the highest growth rate in GDP in 2011 recording over 17%. This is a reflection of the growing demand for commodities like coal, copper and gold, all of which are abundantly available in Mongolia. Currently 58% of the total of Mongolian revenue comes from the natural resource sectors. Mongolia is one of the most sparsely populated countries in the world with 1.67 persons per square kilometer. Yet, the population is also remarkably urbanized. According to 2010 population census, the total population is 2.7 million. About 60 percent of the population lives in urban areas. The Capital city of Ulaanbaatar alone has over 1 million people. There are few cities including Darkhan and Erdenet have large number of population compare to other major cities.
