Not far from the Khangai National Park, 85km northwest of Bayankhongor city, near the center of Galuut Sum, lies Galuutyn Khavtsal, or Galuut Canyon. At the heart of a depression that brings together numerous lakes and rivers, this canyon stands as one of Mongolia's most impressive gorges. Carved over millennia by the Galuut Gol—the Crane River—it commands attention with its 350km length and remarkably narrow width of just one meter in places. Rising 25 meters high, it stands in stark contrast to the tranquility of the surrounding steppe; where the river flows most powerfully, it creates a deafening roar.

This is a particularly fascinating destination for observing wildlife, especially migratory birds. The Ar'had springs region is also renowned for its therapeutic properties. Numerous archaeological discoveries have been unearthed here, including deer stelae and petroglyphs. Perched at the canyon's edge stands a ruined monastery named Mandal, dating back to the 17th century. Visitors can explore it and admire the beautiful Buddhist paintings adorning the surrounding area.
