Why Blue Wolf?​

The legend of the origins of the Mongolian people tells of a union in the heavens between a wild deer and a blue wolf whose progeny because the ancestors of Genghis khan or ( to use the Mongolian version) Chinggis Khan. His spirit animal was said to be the Blue Wolf and the spirit or totem of the Blue Wolf still calls to Mongolians and speaks to higher level of excellence, to the heart of exploration and conquest and to peace and reverence of Nature.

​Our goal is to live the spirit of Mongolia as we experience all that Mongolia has to offer as people have been doing here for millennia...on horseback.



This epic 3,600km. charity horseback expedition will raise funds to help Veloo Foundation, a 501 (c)3 not for profit in the US and Registered Canadian Charity, provide food, warmth and education for hundreds of Mongolian children who, along with their families, scavenge to survive .

 84 Days Through Time

You will start close to  the Chinese Border  and ride wild through the Gobi  desert visiting monasteries, energy centres, animal refuges and a whole myriad of other cultural, historical or natural sites. The route has been planned and scoped out with care and a focus not just on the famed historical and cultural sites that abound, but also on the lesser known markers of the history of human development that dot this wild land. Whether we are riding to ancient Deer Stones standing solid and alone in the midst of the steppe and harkening back to a time before the clans were united or visiting the hideout of a famed "Robin Hood" horse thief from the early 20th Century, we will be experiencing the fullness of the real Mongolia. It is going to be an adventure that nearly defies description!

​You can expect d
esert nights draped with stars, remote and secret monasteries, famed prehistoric deer stones and burial sites and wild, high desolate wilderness refuges. Astonishing wildlife and wild life refuges and spending time high up in the far north of the arboreal Taiga with the last Reindeer riders on the planet AND then cresting sweeping mountains to the land of glaciers and the home the Eagle hunters. This is what the Blue Wolf Totem Ride will be. 

You will cover between 20 and 70 kilometres a day depending on what there is in the neighbourhood that merits investigation. We will ride on average 50 kms a day with a rest day after every 10 days of riding. Our horses are some of the best on the planet and both the horses and our whole team are  well prepared for this epic adventure by years of being part of  the Gobi Gallop, which, at 700 kms is the longest annual charity horseback ride on the planet. The horses welfare is very important to us and so we will be changing horses 3 or 4 times during the ride. 

Mongolia looks something like this...
