Khongoryn Els sand dunes trip

The best of the Gobi with the club’s pilots: Yolyn Am, the Khongoryn Els dunes and Bayanzag. Five days with ground handling on the dunes and nights in ger camps.

Khongoryn Els sand dunes trip

Khongoryn Els is one of the largest sand dune fields in Mongolia. Climbing a high dune and watching the sun set over the Gobi is something you won’t forget.

On the way we walk through the Yolyn Am gorge, ride camels and see the red cliffs of Bayanzag. If the wind allows, we practise ground handling with paragliding wings on the dunes. No flying experience is needed, so the whole family can come.

Meals, accommodation and transport are all included. Days in the Gobi are hot and nights are cool: bring a sun hat, sunscreen and warm clothes.
