Altai Tavan Bogd - 5 Holy Peaks
 In far
Western Mongolia lie the
Altai Mountains the habitat of Lynx,
Argarli sheep and the elusive Snow Leopard. In the remotest corner are the
highest peaks, the Tavan Bogd range and Mongolia’s longest glacier the
Potanii Glacier which stretches 19km. On this Mountaineering
trip we climb Mt Nairandal (Friendship - 4,202m 13,790ft) which marks the
intersection of the Russian, Chinese and Mongolian borders, and for those
with experience we have a crack at climbing the highest peak in Mongolia Mt
Khuiten (Cold - 4374m 14,350ft). The journey to base camp gives us plenty
of opportunity to meet the local Kazakh herders of this region. From base
camp there are great opportunities for day hikes for those
with less of an inclination to climb.
