Cycling in Terelj NP

In the morning, our guide and driver will pick you up from your location and drive about 70 km east of Ulaanbaatar to a 40 m (130 ft) tall, stainless-steel statue of Chinggis Khan on horseback, which is the world’s largest equestrian statue. Inside the statue complex, there is a small museum, souvenir shop, and a lift that takes you up to flights of stairs leading onto the top of the horse’s head where you can get a panoramic view of the surrounding nature. During your visit, our guide will assemble the bikes. Today we will cycle 45 km in total and pass two small hills at 1,754 and 1,888 m above sea level. The road condition is smooth hard soil. Today we will stay overnight at the Mongolian nomadic guest ger.

Our day begins with cycling along the Tuul river through open grassland. After passing Terelj town, we climb up two passes and roll downhill. Lunch is on the way. At our end point, we will load bikes onto support vehicle(s) and head back to Ulaanbaatar.
