There are many hotel lodges and tourist camps, and the local yurt families also provide accommodation, horse riding and dining services, just pick one that you feel comfortable with. If time permits, you can ride to the Turtle Rock, the Aryabal Monastery and then visit them. The riding distance is about 5 kilometers for a single way. Once back to the yurt, walk around to find a shooting place and enjoy the local food.
