Wilderness Landscape & Natural Heritage
Hustai National Park, spanning approximately 122,000 hectares, is located in the Töv Province of Mongolia, around 100 km west of Ulaanbaatar. The park is most famous for its successful reintroduction program of the Takhi, or Przewalski's horse, a species once extinct in the wild. This protected area features rolling steppe, rugged mountains, and clusters of birch forest, which foster a rich range of biodiversity. Besides horses, visitors can spot red deer, Mongolian gazelles, marmots, and an array of bird species. Beyond its ecological significance, Hustai holds cultural value with the presence of ancient burial sites and petroglyphs. For outdoor enthusiasts, the park offers hiking, horseback riding, and wildlife safaris. There's also a research center where visitors can learn about ongoing conservation efforts. Open all year, the park offers distinct experiences across different seasons.
