Outlaw Week (15th - 22nd August)
Price: GBP xxxTrek Plan
This is the first of a 4 week series of events and adventures, and a review of everything we have: an indulgence of trekking with our bikes, jeeps, sidecars, and horses too. Plus traditionl music and dance, gorgeous costumes, and UB nightlife as well. Truly a riot of excitment, art and pleasure. An experience that only THM can offer, and one that you really should not miss.
This series is designed so that you can select any one week, two weeks, three weeks or all of them. So for instance, you may wish to do the Outlaw Week and then undertake the Red Devil Redemption trek out to the Altai Mountains; or you may wish to fly out to Hovd and discover the Altai by motorcycle, then ride back across northern Mongolia all the way to UB. It's up to you.
Based on ideas from our guest star guides Jesse and William (hence the name).
Art and Entertainment across Mongolia: Please note that THM has always pursued two themes: on the one hand travel adventure, and on the other human expression through art and music. In all of our treks, throughout the country, we promote local acts and artists and invite them to entertain us in our camps and venues. This, you can expect.
