Munkhkhairkhan National Park

The park extends across 5,061 square kilometers of varied terrain, including mountains, valleys, and diverse ecological zones in the Mongolian Altai range.

The national park received its official designation in 2011 as part of Mongolia's initiative to protect natural spaces and support wildlife conservation efforts.

Traditional nomadic herding communities maintain their ancestral practices within the park boundaries, contributing to the preservation of Mongolian pastoral traditions.

Visitors can access the park through organized tours from Ulaanbaatar, with spring and summer offering optimal conditions for exploration and wildlife observation.

The park contains Mönkhkhairkhan Mountain, the second highest peak in Mongolia, reaching over 4,200 meters and providing habitat for snow leopards and Altai argali sheep.
