July 31- August 11, 2010 Umnugobi provinceThe Mongolian Gobi is a land of extremes. Its imposing sand dunes, towering mountains and seemingly endless sun-baked desert plains are home to wolves, bears, vultures and nomadic herders. One of the least forgiving environments on earth, temperatures soar above 40C in summer and plummet a staggering 80C through winter. Now into its sixth year Sandbaggers Gobi Challenge has firmly established itself as one of the World's finest desert events. Immense physical and mental challenge, stunning terrain (including an ice gorge, Asia's highest sand dunes and mountain gorges), adventure,original culture and a sense of camaraderie which must be experienced, to be believed, awaits anyone who prepared to face the challenge. Over the period of a week competitors will cover between 130 and 140 miles on foot while carrying their food, provisions and mandatory safety gears. Bottled water will be provided at designated checkpoints. If you are seeking a physical challenge to push you to your limits in the most magical scenery imaginable then our Gobi Challenge 2010 may be for you...
