The National Federation of Pasture User Groups (NFPUG) is a national NGO representing the vital interests of Mongolian herders and is engaged in a wealth of activities to preserve and promote Mongolian pastoralism with its unique nomadic traditions of managing natural resources. We have a wide network of nomadic herders throughout the country that will be happy to show their hospitality to anyone interested in their livelihoods. Proceeds from our tours go entirely back into rangeland management activities to preserve nature and prevent rangeland degradation and soil erosion.
Mongolia is made up of six different ecoregions that are different in terms of vegetation and soil characteristics. We have prepared one to five-day trip packages in four of these wonderful ecoregions of Mongolia. You will have the opportunity to visit one of these ecoregions: forest steppe, steppe, high mountain or desert steppe. Over the ast few years, NFPUG developed State and Transition Modules (STMs) for each group of ecological sites within these ecoregions, including triggers and drivers that caused changes in the vegetation communities, and specific management recommendations.
ONE DAY TOUR TO STEPPE
The Steppe zone consists of five different Sate and Transition Modules, of which you will have an opportunity to see a huge Stipa-dominated plateau, a shrub-dominated plateau and Achnatherum (ricegrass) dominated State and Transition Moduls. The Steppe is also rich with wild animals and special vascular plants. if you are lucky you will see herds of deer, bighorn sheep, and other wild animals (link with special info).
Steppe (1 day): $500 per guest or up to 3 people is $ 400 per guest (by car), more than 10 people 350$ per guest (by bus)
FIVE DAYS TOUR TO FOREST STEPPE
If you would like to visit the Forest Steppe you’ll see four different State and Transition Modules: fescue dominated, small bunch grass dominated, Stipa dominated, and Carex dominated.Thisis an area inhabited by wildlife such as wolf, deer, and wild pigs. Forest steppe is also rich in vascular plant diversity (up to 60 species per square meter in some areas), and has an abundance of wildlife and other natural attractions. You will have an opportunity to see rare vascular plants such as Saussurea involucrate and Sedum aizoon, amongst other species while hiking in the mountains (link with special info).
Forest Steppe (5 days): $3000 per guest or up to 3 people is $2500 per guest (by car), more than 10 people $2000 per guest (by bus)
FIVE DAYS TOUR TO DESERT STEPPE
The Desert Steppe contains specially-adapted vascular plantsand is beautifully set as the transition the between Steppe and Desert zones. It was a motherland of dinosaurs, and you will have an opportunity to visit the area where many dinosaur fossils are still preserved in their natural setting (link with special info).
Desert Steppe (5 days): $3000 per guest or up to 3 people is $ 2500 per guest, more than 10 people $2000 per guest (By bus)
FIVE DAYS TOUR TO HIGH MOUNTAIN
The High Mountain zones support very unique and rare species. It consists of beautiful mountains that are 2000m and more above sea level. If you select this trip you will have an opportunity to see the unique nomadic culture and pastoral herding system of Mongolia and a high wild species diversity. Mongolian herders tend to six different domestic livestock: camel, horse, cattle, goat, and sheep. You will have first-hand experience of learning about traditional grazing methods and experiencing the nomadic way of life, traditions and cultures. Immerse yourself completely into the heart of it all. These experiences will no doubt be made even more memorable with plenty of off-road driving, exposure to wild fauna and flora, exotic livestock and wild animals, coupled with an overnight stay under the blue sky and countless stars (link with special info).
