Novoselenginsk Getting there & around

Getting there & away

Marshrutky from Ulan-Ude (R100, 1½ hours, six or seven daily) all pause here on their way to Kyakhta. Novoselenginsk has no hotel, and just a simple pozi canteen where the bus stops, but there's little reason to linger beyond the couple of hours it takes to see the town. Beware: we have received one horrific though fortunately atypical report of foreign visitors being brutally mugged at 4am while they were camping near Novoselenginsk.
