Eagles & Glaciers — Altai Expedition

Few places on Earth can match the Mongolian Altai. Here, mountains are not merely tall — they crown themselves in eternal snow, reach toward the heavens, and stand as the final markers of the world's edge. Here, nomads do not simply herd their animals — they keep alive the art of eagle hunting, a tradition passed down unbroken for four thousand years. Here, silence is not merely the absence of sound — it is the feeling that time itself has stopped.

You will sleep in a tent beside the Potanin Glacier, and when you stand on the summit of Malchin Peak, the world will unfold beneath your feet. In that moment, you will discover just how powerful you truly are. You will hold a golden eagle on the arm of an Altai eagle hunter, and ride through secret routes along the Mongolia–China border.

This is not just a journey. This is the one thing you do once in a lifetime.

The 7-day itinerary offers the full experience of the Altai's greatest highlights.

The 11-day itinerary adds a horseback ride along the Mongolia–China border, Khoton Lake, Turgen Waterfall, and other captivating destinations — choose this option if you want the Altai to take you deeper still.
