Mongolia Reindeer Festival 2025 & 2026

About Reindeer Tribe

Reindeer Festival Mongolia

The Reindeer Festival takes place annually near Khuvsgul Lake in Khuvsgul province on July 6 and 7. There are 80 to 90 families living in the depths of the Taiga forest herding their 3000 reindeer. At the beginning of July, several reindeer people arrive near Khuvsgul Lake with their reindeer from the depths of the Taiga forest to introduce their customs and traditions while participating in the Reindeer Festival. It is an opportunity for travelers to discover this unique culture, not traveling far on rough roads and riding horses for several days to the remote Taiga. Besides the Reindeer Festival, Khuvsgul Lake is the world’s freshest water lake and a famous leisure holiday destination. The Reindeer/Tsaatan Festival aims to promote reindeer herding, protect animals and culture, and attract both domestic and foreign tourists.
