Mongolia: Climate & Weather
A country of extremes, Mongolia has interminable, very cold winters and short summers with some rainfall.
This harsh climate is caused by the geographical setting of the country, huge semi desert plains at around 1,500 metres of altitude compensated by the omnipresence of the sun with more than 260 days of sunshine per year. On the other hand, the wind is often strong, particularly in spring when it causes sand storms. Moreover, climate changes are often sudden and harsh. In the Gobi desert to the south, summers are scorching. It is recommended to visit Mongolia between May and the end of September depending on the area chosen. |
