Eagle Festival Mongolia - A guide for travelers

The Golden Eagle Festival in Ulgii Mongolia is a travelers dream. We went to Mongolia in 2016 to journey across the country and to attend this spectacular event.
Eagle hunters from the entire region come to Ulgii to take part in the exciting games. They will compete in a variety of events to determine who is the most successful eagle hunter.
In this video we will provide a few pointers which hopefully will help you plan the best possible trip. Questions and comments are always welcome and we will be happy to provide answers when we can.
We hope you will enjoy this video and please subscribe to our channel for more adventures around the world.

    Hi and thank you for your video. Maybe you wouldn’t mind helping me with a few questions I have. In 2021 I will have my 70 birthday and want to fulfill my life dream to visit Mongolia. I have most interest in the golden eagle festival and the Bactrian camels. I live in southern Spain so my questions are how to reach from here in Spain and how to arrange my trip the same as you didn’t? Thank you for any help you can offer.

    Hello,could you recommend a driver to me? And did the eagle hunter ask you for money after taken photos?

    We offer trips to Mongolia as well. You can visit adventurecalls.us and contact us through there. Eagle hunters did not ask for money directly but we did have small amounts of cash ready and gave tips often

    thank you for the video...I have a couple of questions...how hard did you find it to charge batteries when you were staying in the area of the festival? Do you think you could have gotten some use out of a longer zoom than a 70-200mm? Lastly, I'd be interested to know where you have your photos posted from your trip.

    Welcome. The festival is not far from town and most visitors will stay in hotel and have power. Other parts of the country is trickier and a good supply of precharged batteries will come in handy. Also the temperature drops pretty heavy at nighttime which can wear out the batteries. When we were out in the wilderness we would sleep with batteries in our sleeping bag. A long lens is definitely useful. Ideally we would have the 400mm L lens but $$$. You should check out our adventure calls us Facebook page where there are multiple photo albums. Thanks for watching!

    You can visit the far place in the Altai for meeting real nomadic herders and Eagle Hunters with generator to charge the battery. We arrange these kind of things.

    I have heard there was an incident involving a lot of conflict and the tasering of a horse and possibly also a man at the eagle festival this year. Did you not see or hear anything?!

    +Meghan Fitz-James I haven't been able to find anything on that. We were there 2016 and planning to go back 2018. If you find any information I would be curious to see it. I will say that we felt perfectly safe there and I would expect that to be a freak occurence

    Adventure Calls I have found two blogs, 2 first hand witnesses have reported to me anonymously and I have have been sent video footage lasting 4,27 minutes from one of them. I will be producing a report video and putting it on KZread about it. There are absolutely no news on this either inside or outside of Mongolia. My video should be ready within the week. Look for some starter insight by seeing blog by Lisa Vanderzweep. The other blog ( with much less and detail) is my Linda Dillenbeck. My sources are extremely solid people whose identities I have to protect fiercely. But you will see my video report, along with, I hope, the world. And the issue of there being no news on this whatsoever is very, very telling.
