Stay in an eco-ger camp
Spend a night or two at Ursa Major Geolodge to get back to basics. As there is no running water at the camp, steaming hot towels will be brought to your ger every morning and evening. With no electricity, use candlelight to navigate your cosy ger at bedtime.![Go stargazing](/media/cache/driver/upload/mirror/dhruv-wildfrontierstravel-com/0d07cb38_MilkyWayStarGazingGobidreamstimem128327471.jpeg)
Go stargazing
Star gazing in Mongolia is not just about enjoying the beautiful night sky about your head, it also makes up a very important part of the local culture as the starry skies allowed nomadic people to navigate through the vast steppes and deserts.![Climb up to Tovkhon Monastery](/media/cache/driver/upload/mirror/dhruv-wildfrontierstravel-com/3983b359_TovkhonMonasteryShireetUlaanMountainKhangaiNuruuNationalParkOvorkhangaiProvincedreamstimem151376063.jpeg)
