Russia and Mongolia have agreed to establish tourist flights between the two countries in the Lake Baikal region.

Following meetings earlier in the week, G.Yondongombo from the Ministry of Road, Transport and Tourism of Mongolia said an agreement had been reached with Russian tourism officials.

Initial plans call for establishing direct flights between Russia’s Lake Baikal and Mongolia’s Khovsgol Lake.

Khovsgol Lake is located in northwest Mongolia near the border to Russia, at the foot of the eastern Sayan Mountains.
Some 40,000 tourists per year visit the area.
