What’s a yurt (or ger)?
A yurt or ger is the home of the Mongolian nomads. Its history dates back thousands of years, and yurts are still widely in use year-round across Mongolia. Our beautiful yurts are made using mostly natural products, hand crafted by a Mongolian family on the principle of fair trade. Yurts are sustainable, leaving no footprint and comprise of organic material like felt insulation and horse hair ropes. - From Groovy Yurts website
