Höhepunkte der Reise
Inner Mongolia is in northern China and borders Mongolia. Both are part of the Mongolian Plateau and both preserve Mongolian grassland culture and nomadic traditions. For travelers, however, Inner Mongolia is far easier to access and makes a more convenient starting point for experiencing grasslands, desert landscapes, and nomadic culture.

Spring, summer, and autumn all work well. March to May brings crisp air; June to August is the classic and most comfortable season; and from September to November the light is softer and both the desert and grasslands feel quieter. Winter also has its own snowy beauty, but temperatures are significantly colder.

Overall, it is a short route with an unhurried pace. Both the grassland ride and the desert activities can be adjusted according to your stamina and interests, making it well suited to travelers who want to experience real nature without turning the trip into a rushed schedule.
Vor der Abreise
The grassland stay uses luxury gers with two guests per unit and a private bathroom. The idea is to leave the night to the grasslands and the stars while still ensuring a solid level of comfort.

No. In June, July, and August, you will stay in a premium desert tent in the deeper desert, approximately 45 square meters in size, with air-conditioning and a private bathroom. In other months, the stay is in a desert resort hotel. Overall comfort is significantly higher than that of an ordinary camping ground.

In a very short time, it naturally connects the grasslands, the old city, and the desert, so guests can truly stay on the grasslands, ride into the pasture, and then sleep in the heart of the desert while taking in sunrise, sunset, blue hour, and the stars.
Echte Erlebnisse
This route places more emphasis on authenticity and atmosphere than on superficial sightseeing. Instead of taking a quick look at the grassland or desert and leaving, you truly stay on the grassland, ride into the pasture, and then experience the scale and nightfall of the dunes.
Vor der Abreise
Very much so. The horseback riding, grassland sunrise, grassland bonfire, desert sunrise and sunset, blue hour, stars, and old-city craft scenes all offer excellent visual depth.
Verlässliche Betreuung

The safest approach in Inner Mongolia is to prepare WeChat Pay, Alipay, and some RMB cash. Only some five-star hotels accept international credit cards such as Visa, so overseas cards should not be treated as the main payment method.
