Khovsgol Lake tour in February
with Ice festival and visiting Darhad family’s
Ice Festival on the Lake Khovsgol. Vast areas of Lake Khovsgol have remained basically untouched due to its rough terrain. Gorgeous mountain ranges bound the lake from all sides. The most impressive of all are the Sayan Mountains that are located south from Lake Khovsgol with Khoridol Saridag mount being the utmost summit in the whole north region. It stands right on the Mongolian and Russian border overlooking both countries from the height of 3491 m. This is the world of glaciers, stormy winds and fascinating landscape.
In February for just 2 weeks the trails leading to Khoridol Saridag becomes crowded with tens of tourists. Both newcomers and winter sport funs come here every year to explore the glaciers, to meet friends and sing songs round the camp fire.
In February, Khovsgol Lake – ice festival will take place in Khatgal village and on Lake Khovsgol shores. The festival will provide boundless opportunities for Lake Khovsgol visitors to enjoy winter sports and outdoor activities including downhill and cross-country skiing, ice-fishing contests, etc.
