The Maanar Migration Tour offers travellers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to live and move with authentic nomadic herders of the Darkhad Valley in northern Mongolia.
In this tour, you will witness the unique traditions of the Darkhad nomads, who still practice seasonal migration with yaks and hybrid cattle (hainag). Actively participate in packing gers, loading livestock, and herding animals across the pristine Darhad Valley and the Khordil Sardag Mountain Range. Share daily life with nomadic families, cooking, setting up gers, tending to livestock, and helping animals across rivers and mountain passes. Experience the balance between humans, animals, and nature in one of Mongolia’s most remote and breathtaking regions. And enjoy the spectacular scenery of snowy passes, frozen rivers, and the legendary Lake Khuvsgul, Mongolia’s “Blue Pearl.”
This is not a passive trip: you will ride, herd, pack, and migrate side by side with nomads as they move to their winter pastures — a truly immersive cultural and physical adventure.
