Experience story
Horsemanship and archery are woven into the heritage of Gongbu Tibetan life around Basong Tso, and the lodge's equestrian center lets you experience that culture from the saddle.

The Songtsam Basomtso Linka Equestrian Center is open 09:30-17:30; arena ride options are 298 yuan per person for 15 minutes or 698 yuan per person for 40 minutes, with riding lessons at 698 yuan per person for 40 minutes. Recommended for ages 4-65. Please reserve at the Activity Concierge.
