South Gobi

The Gobi is a desert like none other. Flat arid plains stretch for thousands of miles interrupted by the occasional lone ger or herd of goats, camel or sheep. Kites circle overhead in the cloudless blue sky and the sun beats down relentlessly on all. The Gobi Desert is the least populated area of Mongolia and despite its arid climate it supports a diverse array of bird and animal life including the legendary snow leopard, the Gobi bear and the wild mountain sheep. The harsh environment has produced a most resilient and remarkable people. The sites of the Gobi are varied and distinct. They include the Valley at Yolyn Am, known as Eagle Valley, whose depths support a huge block of glacial sheet ice even in the hottest summer months; the ancient caves and eight rock pools of Eej Mountain; the captive breeding projects for wild camels and horses and the rich reds and rusty desert yellows of the huge canyon at Khermen Tsav with its proliferation of dinosaur bones.
