The third largest city in Mongolia
Lake Khövsgöl, also known as the Khövsgöl Sea, is the oldest and deepest freshwater lake in Mongolia. It is over two million years old and is rich in legends, history, and cultural heritage. Geological and Natural History Lake Khövsgöl is located in the northern part of Mongolia, at an elevation of 1,645 meters above sea level. It is one of the 17 ancient lakes in the world, with its formation estimated at more than two million years ago. Like Lake Baikal, it is an extremely fragile ecosystem, naturally renewing itself only once every 500 years.
The surrounding Khövsgöl Mountains, formed by ancient glaciation, play a vital role in preserving the lake’s exceptional water purity. Lake Khövsgöl contains approximately 75% of Mongolia’s freshwater resources and about 0.5% of the world’s freshwater, making it one of the most significant freshwater ecosystems on Earth.
A total of 46 rivers and streams flow into the lake, while only one river, the Egiin Gol, flows out, connecting Lake Khövsgöl to the Selenge River and eventually to Lake Baikal.
The local ecology is unique, as the area lies within a transition zone between the Siberian taiga forest and the Central Asian steppe. This geographical position supports rich biodiversity and helps maintain the lake’s pristine freshwater quality.
