Getting there & away
Hitching
Hitching to anywhere from Khovd is a hassle and not recommended. Your time will be spent more wisely slugging it out on a share Furgon (Russian-made minivan) or jeep. If you do hitch, the easiest destination is probably Ölgii and you might get a lift from other tourists. Although it’s the main highway to Ulaanbaatar, hitching to Altai (in Gov-Altai aimag) isn’t easy and you may end up stranded halfway in Darvi (). Darvi has a hotel (per person T1000), but you’ll need to wait by the petrol station should the rare vehicle pass through. Cars do pass this way, but they are usually too full to take an extra passenger.
