Despite the rainy weather, many people attended. Yesterday's session included an explanation of each stage of the Malchin Trail 2026 and a presentation on operational plans, followed by numerous questions and answers. A notable point was that bikepacking is still a relatively new activity, and therefore, more accessible methods should be developed to make it easier for beginners to participate.

Following the path of the Mongolian shepherd
“The Mongolian sky was impossibly blue. And beneath it, my bike tire had burst.” Freedom in discomfort, connection in solitude, achievement through failure. On the ancient trails of nomads stretching back five millennia, the smiles and generosity of the Mongolian people revealed the pure essence of humanity—something you can only encounter out on the road. 1. The Journey Begins with a Torn Tire Leaving Ulaanbaatar, we headed east toward Terelji National Park. Our plan was amb
