Bogd Khan Mountain, Sacred mountain summit near Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia.

The mountain rises 2,251 meters above sea level, featuring dense forests, rocky outcrops, and numerous hiking trails across its extensive terrain.

In 1778, the area became the first national park in Mongolia when local authorities designated it as protected land for its natural resources.

The mountain contains multiple Buddhist monasteries where religious ceremonies continue, maintaining a connection to traditional Mongolian spiritual practices.

Visitors need permits from National Park authorities to access the trails, and winter conditions require additional preparation due to extreme temperatures.

The mountain serves as a natural habitat for rare species including argali sheep and ibex, which roam freely throughout the protected area.
