Lakeside Horse-riding


Hovsgol, often called "Blue Pearl of Mongolia," offers vast stretches perfect for horseback adventures. With the backdrop of pristine waters and snow-capped mountains, riders can navigate the scenic shores and surrounding steppes. Guided by local herders, explore untouched terrains and immerse in the age-old nomadic tradition of horse riding, feeling the harmonious blend of nature and culture.

Shamanic Rituals


Lake Hovsgol holds deep spiritual significance. Here, travellers can witness the mesmerizing rituals of Mongolian Shamanism. Attend ceremonies where shamans, in vibrant attire, communicate with spirits, seeking guidance and blessings. The rhythmic beats of drums, combined with their trance-like dances, make it an unforgettable spiritual journey into the depths of Mongolian traditions.

Lakeside Gers Experience


The iconic Mongolian ger finds a picturesque setting by Lake Hovsgol's shores. Choose to spend the night in these traditional tents, experiencing the warmth of a wood stove and the comfort of fur blankets. As night falls, the sounds of the gentle lake waves and the brilliant display of stars above promise an unmatched serene sleep.

Ice Trekking


Come winter, Lake Hovsgol transforms into a shimmering ice sheet. Adventurers can embark on ice treks, feeling the thrill of walking over the deep frozen waters. Surrounded by snow-covered peaks and clear, starry skies, it's an otherworldly experience. Those visiting in spring can witness the incredible natural event of the ice break-up, a spectacle of nature's raw power.

Kayaking Excursions


During the warmer months, the clear blue waters of Lake Hovsgol invite visitors for kayaking. Paddle through tranquil waters, discovering hidden coves and bays. The lake is also home to diverse fish species, making it an angler's paradise. Whether you're fly fishing from the shores or out in a traditional boat, the serene ambiance and the thrill of the catch promise a fulfilling experience.

Hovsgol Ice Festival


Every winter, the lake becomes a hub of festivities during the Hovsgol Ice Festival. Engage in exciting activities like ice-skating, dog sledding, and traditional games. The highlight is the vibrant parade of locals dressed in traditional attires, showcasing Mongolia's rich cultural tapestry against the backdrop of the crystalline icy expanse.
