Mongolia travel tips

1. Pick the Right Time to Visit

Mongolia’s weather can be extreme, with hot summers and freezing winters. The best months to visit are June to September, when the temperatures are warm, and the green countryside is in full bloom.

Summer and early fall are ideal for outdoor activities like hiking, horse riding, and camping. The beautiful weather lets you explore Mongolia’s natural beauty, especially in stunning areas like the Altai Mountains.

2. Experience Mongolia’s Nomadic Life

One of the best parts of traveling in Mongolia is getting to know the local way of life. Many Mongolian families still live as nomads, moving with the seasons and living in traditional round tents called “gers.”

Staying with a family in a ger gives you a chance to see how they live, taste local foods, and learn about their traditions. Mongolian hospitality is warm and welcoming, and sharing tea and stories with a nomadic family will be a memory you’ll treasure.

3. Pack Smart for Different Weather and Terrain

Mongolia’s landscapes vary a lot—from deserts to mountains—so packing the right clothing is key. Even in the summer, the temperature can shift from hot during the day to chilly at night.

Pack layers, sturdy shoes for walking, a sun hat, and a windproof jacket. If you’re heading to the mountains, add extra warm layers. Being prepared for all kinds of weather helps you stay comfortable and enjoy every part of your trip.

4. Enjoy Mongolia’s Unique Wildlife

Mongolia is home to some amazing animals, like the snow leopard, golden eagle, and wild Bactrian camel. Many tours, especially in the Altai Mountains, offer a chance to see these animals in their natural homes.

Keep your eyes open for wild ibex and the many rare birds that make Mongolia a birdwatcher’s paradise. It’s a thrilling experience to watch these creatures in their natural surroundings, so bring your binoculars and a camera to capture these moments.

5. Take Part in Local Festivals and Traditions

Mongolia is rich in traditions, and attending a local festival is a great way to experience them. The Naadam Festival, for example, celebrates wrestling, horse racing, and archery, three beloved Mongolian sports.

In the Altai region, you might get to see an eagle festival, where hunters show off their skills with trained golden eagles. Watching these age-old customs up close is a fantastic way to connect with Mongolia’s culture.
