Khermen Tsav Canyon

Khermen Tsav Canyon is one of the must-see places of Western Gobi in Mongolia.

This wonder of nature is located 160 km from the west of Gurvan Tes soum town. With dramatic big canyons and tall cliffs, these interesting red-colored earth formations stretch about 12km long.

Rainfall during summer shapes off parts of this formation as the years pass. Khermen Tsav is quite remote and barren.  It is not an easy destination to reach by any means, especially during the peak of summer heat in July and the beginning of August.
