English: Natural-colour image of Har Nuur. Camel-coloured sand dunes ripple along the lake’s northern shore. Along the southern shore, sand dunes approach the lake in just two locations. A triangle-shaped expanse of sand borders Har Nuur in the east, and a tongue of sand intrudes into the lake in the west, pushing through a gap in the nearby mountains. All of the sane dunes, however, form part of a larger dune field nearly encircling the lake.
