Tour Overview

This extraordinary 17 day shamanic journey traces the ancient spiritual routes of northern Mongolia, from the steppes of Darkhan to the sacred taiga of Tsagaannuur and Renchinlkhumbe. Traveling by car, horseback, and on foot, the expedition leads through remote valleys, alpine forests, and rivers where shamans have performed ceremonies for centuries.

Along the way, participants will witness and take part in authentic shamanic rituals at revered sites such as the Agar River, the 13 Ovoo of Olin Bald Hill, Mogchiin Ovoo, and Ongon’s 13 Ovoo. The journey includes encounters with Tsaatan reindeer herders, visits to families who preserve ancestral traditions, and ceremonies honoring mountain, river, and sky spirits.

This is not a staged performance but a living pilgrimage, where ancient practices unfold in their natural setting. For those seeking spiritual depth, cultural immersion, and a passage into Mongolia’s most mystical landscapes, this expedition offers a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
