Toilogt Camp Hatgal Khuvsgul Mongolia

2002 Nice to see they attached bathrooms to the gers, but I assume they still drain right to the lake. When I went, someone came in and started the stove in the morning and put on some tea. Then you could go have breakfast in the big house. The people were lovely, especially the women who did 99% of the work. It’s one of those places where you could say honestly, “I can see Russia from my house.” We met the shaman who was a woman. She and her husband helped me get my horse back after the reins got loose from my grip.

My friend and I, who are both teachers in Ulaanbaatar, took the 14 hour journey by bus and taxi to Khovsgol, where we stayed at Toilogt. The long journey was more than worth it. The location of the camp is simply stunning, at the south of the lake, about 20km from the village of Khatgal. The facilities are excellent. We stayed in a Ger which was cosy and clean. There is also lodge rooms and teepees available. The food at the camp was superb. All of this was provided at a more than reasonable price. Khovsgol itself is absolutely amazing. The quiet and stillness is glorious, and the views are simply unforgettable, especially at sunset. Thank you Toilogt Camp - we will be back!
