To reach Khagiin Khar Lake, located approximately 90 km straight from Ulaanbaatar, the only options are by helicopter, horseback, or on foot. This ensures that the natural beauty and wildlife of the area remain largely untouched. Despite the challenges of the journey, the breathtaking scenery will make you forget your fatigue. There are several routes to the lake; for a shorter trip, the Galtai Burnai route is recommended. If walking is strenuous, you can opt to use a personal horse for an additional ¥10,000, making the journey more comfortable. Khagiin Khar Lake is one of the most beautiful spots in Mongolia, where you can encounter wildlife such as deer, wolves, bears, cougars, and minks, who are unafraid of humans. The path to the lake includes forests, marshlands, streams, fallen trees, and rivers, offering a rewarding experience despite some obstacles. It is said in Mongolia that this trek is "hell for the feet, but heaven for the heart." Why not embark on this journey to paradise?

This tour is recommended only for those confident in their physical fitness. The trek is conducted entirely in the wilderness, with no shelter from rain or wind. The paths are wide enough for horses and hikers, though you may occasionally cross marshes. Gaiters and hiking shoes are essential. You should bring boots, gaiters, sandals for river crossings, a raincoat, and a backpack. The backpack should contain water, a raincoat, sunglasses, sunscreen, insect repellent, snacks, and other essentials. During summer, mosquitoes and flies are prevalent, so take appropriate measures. The temperature can drop in the morning and evening, so warm clothing is also necessary. For horseback riders, boots or long boots are required. Our staff will do their utmost to ensure a comfortable journey.

Visiting Mongolia was an absolute dream come true! The ancient ruins are truly mesmerizing, and the views are breathtaking.

Thank you very much for your support towards climbing Otgontenger this time.

Being able to communicate in Japanese for everything from email exchanges during the preparation stage to on-site follow-up was really helpful for me, as I don't have any language skills.

During the climb, the two young guides supported me as I was about to give up due to the blizzard and snow walls, and successfully guided me to the summit. I was surprised to hear that the company has only been established for a few years. I pray that it will continue to prosper.

Please take me somewhere else.

I felt like I was able to climb a mountain for the first time in a while.

Also, I am very satisfied with the "hospitality" of the staff, including Mr. Uruka.

However, as we get older, we often forget things, and we apologize for the inconvenience. Thank you for your continued support.

Thank you very much.
