What are the most spectacular roads in Mongolia?

Located between China and Russia, Mongolia is the world's largest landlocked country covering an area of 1,564,116 km² (603,909 sq mi). Set high in the eastern part of Asia, the country has driving experiences for every driver and becomes a true paradise for 4x4 lovers, with stunning ice roads and mountain adventures. Located in the Khövsgöl Province of northwest of Mongolia, the Lake Khövsgöl ice road is a stunning adventure on ice, available only in winters.

The country has an average elevation of 1,580 m (5,180 ft) with mountains and rolling plateaus, so if you prefer high mountain roads, you need to drive to Khurgan-Khoton Lakes: a truly outstanding 4x4 adventure in the northern part of the Altai mountain range, near the Chinese border. Both lakes are situated at an elevation of more than 2.000m. The country includes the Altai Mountains in the west, the Khangai Mountains in the central part, and the Khentii Mountains in the northeast. If you like challenging adventures, you can’t miss the Hashaatin Davaa, a high mountain pass at 2.545m (8,349 ft) above sea level, in the western part of the country. The country is characterized by vast steppes, deserts, and mountains, with the Gobi Desert covering a significant portion of its southern region.
