Shiliin Bogd Volcano

Sixty kilometers southeast of Dariganga soum, at an elevation of 1778 meters above sea level, lies Shiliin Bogd, the highest of about 200 extinct volcanoes in this elevated plain. The crater of Shiliin Bogd Mountain has broken open towards the northwest, with a rim approximately two kilometers wide and about 300 meters deep. From the summit, one can see around 200 ancient extinct volcanoes, including Zotol Khan and Dosh. The mountain peaks appear as if they have been deliberately shaped and carved, offering a truly breathtaking view. The mountains in this area are named after their conical volcanic shapes.
