Against the backdrop of Mongolia's Gobi Altai Mountains, a scattering of felt-covered gers - or traditional Mongolian yurts - dots the wild expanse of the Gobi Desert, their brightly decorated doors all pointing south. This is the Three Camel Lodge, a remarkable lodge in the heart of the desert that celebrates the traditions of Mongolia's nomads while seeking to preserve its awe-inspiring surroundings.
The Lodge blends into the stunning landscape of the surrounding Gobi desert sheltered by a 54 million-year-old volcanic outcrop of Mt.Bulagtai. It shelters guests with 40 felt gers or traditional nomadic tents as well as the main lodge of striking design with full facilities. An oasis of luxury in the desert the Three Camel Lodge offers comfort and superb service while maintaining a tangible commitment to the ecology of the Gobi.
Built in the heart of the Gobi Desert according to environmentally and culturally sustainable development guidelines, the lodge offers a combination of adventure and sophistication, combining traditional style with superb service to create the ultimate expedition experience. The lodge is ideally situated for adventurous guests with ancient petroglyphs a short walk away and opportunities to experience daily life in the desert and interact with passing nomads who water livestock at a nearby well.
