Getting there & away

Hitching

For lifts from Mörön, hang around the market or the petrol station – and keep asking. Once in Khatgal, most trucks will stop in front of the post office.

From Khatgal, hitching a ride to Jankhai or Toilogt shouldn’t be difficult in the summer, but you’ll probably end up paying a fair bit for a lift anyway. Ask the guests at the camps for a lift. You should be self-sufficient with camping gear and food.

Hitching around the eastern shore is much more difficult and you could wait for days for a lift to come along.

Air

In summer MIAT has direct flights from Ulaanbaatar to Khatgal (via Mörön) four days a week; the cost is US$101/192 one way/return. Flights are cut back in the off season, but extra flights might be added for the July peak season. Schedules are continually in flux so check with MIAT in Ulaanbaatar. There are no longer any flights to Khankh.
