The Khüisiin Gobi is a dry basin in western Mongolia, set among the ranges and depressions of the Great Lakes region. Together with the neighbouring Sharga Gobi and Tsetseg Lake basins, it forms an enclosed drainage area in which surface water is scarce. Mountains and broad desert plains give the country a varied relief, while the arid climate makes the springs and seasonal waters of the basin especially significant.
