Join us for an unforgettable nomadic festival adventure.
Music, culture, and community under the desert stars.
Your festival journey begins here.
Nestled in the peaceful desert of Newberry Springs, California, Bataar Camp invites you to step into a world where nomadic tradition meets serene natural beauty. Our camp offers a one-of-a-kind experience of authentic Mongolian ger (yurt) camping, inspired by the centuries-old lifestyle of the steppe.
Sleep in beautifully furnished gers beneath star-filled skies, wake to quiet desert sunrises, and reconnect with simplicity. Whether you're seeking peace, culture, or open space, our camp is a place to slow down and live meaningfully.
More than a stay — it's a story. Gather by the fire, share meals under the stars, and discover the freedom of the open land. At Bataar Camp, you're not just a guest — you're part of the journey.

Incredible views of the stars, beautiful mountains all around, complete silence, & our kids loved the ride on toys.
Moi
The yurt experience was good. The fabulous starry night. Kitchen and toilet equipment were clean but outdated. For a camping project was perfect. The place is being rebuilt in part but promises to be very good.

Sjoerd
Booked this one last minute on our way from LA to Vegas, and it was a very cute and remote gettaway. Very cold (because it was winter, but there was a heater in the yurt, so you wouldn't notice it at all) Unique experience overall!
