Tavan Bogd Ovoo

Lonely Planet may earn a commission from affiliate links on our site. All recommendations and reviews reflect our own independent opinions.

The incumbent Mongolian president is obliged to visit this ceremonial ovoo (shamanistic collection of stones, wood or other offerings to the gods) every five years; Battulga will fly in by helicopter in 2018. The views are spectacular, but there is a litter problem. It's connected by road to the north ranger station. The Khuiten Uul base camp is 4km downhill.
