Our first stop will be 5 hours westwards driving at Kharkhorin (also called Karakorum), site of the 13th century capital of the Mongolian Empire created by Chinggis Khan. Very little is left from this legendary city. In the 16th century, Mongolia's biggest Monastery was build from the ruins of Kharkhorin. Now Erdene Zuu Monastery is all that remains of what once was a huge monastery of 100 temples and about 1.000 lamas residencing there.

The river flows through a canyon where it cuts down through a thick layer of basalt formation created ages ago by volcanic activities. Today the inactive volcanoes still rise in the middle of a black volcanic rocky scene. Close to the fishing area is the Terkhiin Tsagaan Lake. It is one of the most beautiful lakes of the country formed by lava flows from a volcanic eruption. An optional afternoon trip will be organised to the lake. We will set up our camp close to one of the good fishing spots. (Tented Camp, B, L, D) 4th to 10th dayFishing days. We will be guided to different spots along the river.
