There are some trails to walk down and up through the cliffs. Opportunity to photograph its colors in the morning and at night. The Gobi Desert is the source of many important fossil finds, including the first dinosaur eggs. Despite the harsh conditions, these deserts and the surrounding regions sustain many animals, including black-tailed gazelles, marbled polecats, Bactrian camels, Mongolian wild ass and sand plovers. They are occasionally visited by snow leopards, brown bears, and wolves. Camel riding, meeting nomadic people, staying in a traditional tent, seeing grasslands and beautiful vistas.
