Delgermurun camp

A Ger fishing camp by the river bank combines traditional Mongolian living in a ger (yurt) with the experience of fishing in pristine, remote natural settings. Here’s an overview of what such a camp typically entails:

The Ger (Yurt) Experience

  • Authentic Accommodation: Gers are traditional Mongolian dwellings made of a wooden frame, felt insulation, and a canvas cover. At a Ger fishing camp, you stay in one of these cozy, circular tents, blending a cultural experience with modern comfort.
  • Interior Setup: Inside the Ger, you’ll often find low wooden beds, rugs, cushions, and sometimes a central stove for warmth. Though rustic, these setups are designed to keep you warm and comfortable in various weather conditions.
  • Camp Layout: The gers are often spaced along the riverbank, allowing each guest a private spot near the water, perfect for relaxing and fishing at leisure.

Fishing Opportunities

  • Pristine Rivers: Mongolia is known for its crystal-clear rivers, teeming with fish such as lenok, taimen, and grayling. The rivers near Ger camps are often located in remote areas, ensuring a tranquil fishing experience away from crowds.
  • Fishing from the Shore or Boats: Depending on the river, you can cast your line from the bank or take a boat to reach deeper or more secluded spots.
  • Catch-and-Release Practices: we encourage catch-and-release fishing, especially for taimen, to preserve the delicate ecosystem of Mongolia’s rivers.

 

Camp Facilities

  • Dining and Communal Areas: Many fishing camps feature a larger communal Ger or dining tent where meals are served. The food often includes hearty Mongolian dishes like grilled meats, soups, and dumplings, perfect after a long day of fishing.
  • Guides and Equipment: Expert local fishing guides are typically available to assist with finding the best spots, tying knots, and using local fishing techniques. Some camps also provide fishing gear if you don’t bring your own.
  • Fire Pits and Relaxation Areas: Outdoor fire pits or seating areas are common, where guests can gather in the evenings to share stories, relax by the fire, or simply enjoy the peaceful surroundings.

Natural Beauty and Wildlife

  • Riverside Views: The camp’s location by the river offers stunning views, with clear waters flowing past and rugged hills or forested landscapes in the background. It’s an idyllic setting for those who enjoy nature in its purest form.
  • Wildlife Sightings: Mongolia is rich in wildlife, and you might spot animals like ibex, eagles, or even wolves in the distance while staying at the camp. Birdwatchers will also enjoy spotting migratory species near the water.

Ideal for Groups or Solitude

  • Whether you’re looking for a quiet escape to fish in peace or want to join a group of fellow anglers, a Ger fishing camp offers flexibility. Many camps cater to both solo travelers and groups, making it a perfect retreat for anyone seeking adventure, cultural enrichment, and outdoor relaxation.

This type of camp is perfect for anglers who want to experience Mongolia’s wild beauty while enjoying the cultural richness of staying in a traditional yurt. Whether fishing for lenok, taimen, or grayling, the serenity of the camp makes for a one-of-a-kind adventure.
