  1. A Brief Guide On The Horseback Riding Tours In Mongolia Imagine yourself taking hold of the reins of the steed, galloping across the continuing miles of landscape beneath an azure sky. A tangible silence pervades all through, and you are a visitor in an alien land named Mongolia, far from the madding crowd, distant from the throng of life, as if hailing back to a different time zone of a historical past. A short trek in Mongolia on horseback would give you mixed feelings for sure, - sometimes sublime, sometimes reflective, sometimes monotonous but always adventurous. Lake Khovsgol region, Terelj National Park, in close proximity to Ulan Bator and the Altai Mountains of western Mongolia are popular sites from short treks on horseback. They are visually appealing with their pristine sceneries and can also arrange for you organised short trek packages. For custom horseback trek, Karakorum, in Central Mongolia also deserves mention. Horseback rides can range from a two hours tour, to an overnight one to tours spanning for months. Choice depends on your mind set, bravery and the budget that you are willing to afford. Most commonly you would prefer a guide to accompany you but may even skip such an idea, provided you are infinitely confident and courageous. In such a case you may even hire a horse for months to ride and travel in silence and solitude. No matter what, risks are unnumbered. You horse may get stolen, the hoofs may skit, your horse may go truant declining to cooperate with you and you may get stranded. Having a guide would reduce the number of risks. For $20 you can hire a horse for a day or few hours and a guide would also cost you something similar. While a four days trek on horseback in Mongolia is common for most of the tourists, some opt for adventurous ventures for twelve days to remote places like Tsagaan Nuur near Khovsgol. For hard core adventurers, roads not taken always turn out to be fascinating and alluring. Some even choose rides on horseback for two months or more either being aware or not aware of the adversities yet to follow- back aching saddles, piercing heat, stinging flies, and unending hours of monotonous silence, either for being alone or for being in company of a non-English speaking guide. Short treks in Mongolia can be palpably exciting to last for a life time in your memories, but for making the most of such treks you need to follow certain riding tips as horse riding for prolonged hours demands certain training and adaptability on the part of the rider or the trekker. The Mongolian horses although shorter in size compared to the rest in the world, they boast of their strength and resilience even in the most ruffled of the climates. Thus underestimating their spirits would be foolish indeed. After all they
