A great day trip from UB - This was a great day trip out of the city. Picked up from my hotel right on time by 2 very friendly and entertaining guides. The walk was a good exercise without being too strenuous, the scenery was beautiful, lots of laughs along the way, the lunch was delicious and well deserved. Highly recommended

Great day - Had a great day with Eric trekking to Tsetsee Gun Peak. A lot of fallen trees made it a challenging trek but Eric found the way to the top. Beware the trek is 8.5 km both ways and at the moment even longer du to the fallen trees.

Nature lovers’ dream - The forest was peaceful. The scenery was beautiful. Saw lots of birds and wildlife. Marmots, squirrels, chipmunks. Saw deer tracks in the mud. Beautiful wildflowers everywhere. There was a cuckoo in the distance which added to the peaceful scene. Eric, my guide, was absolutely fabulous. A recent windstorm downed many trees that blocked the trail and most of the bridges. Eric managed to find a way through the forest and over boulders to get us to the destination. The view from the top was great - but rain set in. Absolutely fabulous day. This hike is very challenging. Be prepared.

What a great way to see Mongolia! - Beautiful hike to the top of the mountain. Great tour guide. Eric was very nice and even played some fun music as we hiked up. There were very few people along the way where there are large trees and boulders.
