Eco-friendly travel
- Bring a refillable bottle and refill from filtered water.
- Choose tour operators that respect nomad families and pay them fairly.
- Take all your rubbish back from the steppe and the Gobi.
- Don't drive off existing tracks: the steppe heals slowly.
- Respect sacred ovoo (stone cairns): walk around them clockwise.
- Never feed wild animals.
