Experience Mongolia's breathtaking landscapes and rich cultural heritage year-round.

Mongolia's natural beauty and rich heritage can be experienced all year round. Having said that, summer (June to August) is considered the peak season. The weather is pleasant, and the nights are cool, making it perfect for outdoor activities like trekking, hiking, etc. During this period, the nomadic families are on the move, making it easier for travellers to experience their lifestyle.

The festival season in mid-July is a spectacular event, drawing huge crowds from locals to foreign travellers. The Naadam Festival, which happens during this period, showcases traditional sports like archery, horse riding, and wrestling, giving you an unforgettable cultural experience. If you seek to explore their culture, plan your trip coinciding with the Naadam Festival.

If you are seeking adventure, plan your trip during the autumn (September to October). During this period, the landscape is lush green with colourful foliage, giving a view to behold. In addition, this period is perfect for adventure activities like trekking and hiking.

The winters in Mongolia are extremely harsh, with heavy snowfall in regions like the Gobi Desert and northern areas, making it a perfect time for winter sports. You can enjoy skiing, dog sledding, and other winter sports activities. This season also showcases a different perspective of Nomadic culture. If winter sports are your thing, and you want to experience a different side of the Nomadic culture, plan your trip for winter.
