The Silent Ghost of the Altai
In the remote Altai ranges of western Mongolia, where eagle hunters ride across endless steppe and mountains rise like fortresses, lives the legendary snow leopard. This expedition blends the thrill of tracking this elusive predator with immersion into Mongolia’s nomadic traditions. Expect stark beauty, raw wilderness, and the quiet patience of watching ridgelines for the faintest sign of movement. Every day is a lesson in endurance, culture, and discovery.
