Welcome to Sweet Gobi!

Tucked just a few kilometres away from the geographical centre of Mongolia, the Sweet Gobi Geolodge offers a unique view of the golden sand dunes of Elsen Tasarhai (Central Gobi – Ovorhangai region). To the northwest lie the sacred mounts of Khogno Khan, revered for centuries by the local Mongolian population as a place of worship for shamans and Buddhist monks. On horse or camelback, ride off to Urga, the ancient Mongolian capital, or go on an excursion to the Erdene Khamba and Ovgon Monasteries at 40 minutes by car. For the beauty of local landscapes and the richness of fauna and flora, we invite nature enthusiasts to hike around the Tara Lake, in the Batkhaan Mountains, along the Bayanturuun Riverbank, or a bit further away around the Oguii Lake.
