We invite you to go with us to the wilderness area. The land where the mountain slopes are covered with hundreds and thousands of dense forests hectares, there are vast meadows of flowers, crystal clear sais are flowing and the deepest canyons lie. You will be amazed by the flora and fauna of these places. Huge peaks, stretching almost 4 km into the sky, cover this region from strong winds and heat inherent in the nature of Central Asia. Here, even in summer you can feel the cool breath of glaciers. You will not see such beauty anywhere else.

Every day interesting tracks are waiting for you, when you can get acquainted with the beauty of these places and feel the power of nature. This trip is suitable for everyone. We organize intensive hiking with climbing and trekking for more hardy participants. For those wishing to improve their health and nerves far from civilization in the heart of the dense forest, every day there will be unchallenging walk. Thanks to the unique location of the camp in the “singing forest” your tents will always be in the shade, which will allow you to relax during the day.

There you will be offered a delicious and eco-friendly breakfast in traditional style. All products are grown by local people in their own fields and gardens with care and love. Honey, nuts and some seasonal fruits are also gathered in the local mountains and slopes of Boysuntau. Boysun is also famous for its animal produce, especially for its Hissar sheep breed, that, like other cattle, graze on green and herb mountainous meadows. For this reason, all meat and dairy products here are also ecologically clean and natural.

    Start of the tour:

    Darband Gorge - “Derbent” or “Darband” is translated from Tajik as “closed door”.  One of the most important caravan routes connecting Sogdiana and India passed through this gorge.  Inhabitants of this village were responsible for guarding this route with the historical past being reflected in the name of the gorge.

    Hojimoy-Ota is one of a sacred place in Surkhandarya and is located in the depths of the Derbent gorge. There is a cave that has an underground lake with sacred fish. It’s a beautiful place surrounded by huge vertical rocks from all sides. Hojimoy-Ota is a famous place of pilgrimage for both locals and people from other regions of Uzbekistan.

    Kaptarhona Canyon. Once it was a wild and little-visited canyon. The canyon got its name (mean - dovecote) for the pigeons that nested here long time ago. This picturesque canyon consists of wondrous turns among its cliffs and boulders scattered in the middle of a narrow path. The walls of the canyon are cut by various terraces, cornices and have many shallow "caves".

    Lunch (Lunch boxes.  Menu can be discussed depending on the preferences of the group)

    Transfer to the Camp No. 1.

    Dinner. Overnight

  • Breakfast.

    Camp gathering. Transition to the camp No. 2. The transition itself is a small adventure - you have to descent from the mountain to the valley, where we shall visit the shepherds campsites and be little acquainted with their way of life. Next, we will be engaged in the transition by the "shelves" (narrow path) over the cliff to our next camp, which is located on the edge of the forest. Distance (~5 km, ~2 hours).

    Lunch.

    After lunch you will have a track to the spur ahead of you for review the area.

    Dinner.

On this day we will have a fascinating journey to the canyon. First, we will visit the karst waterfall, located at the bottom of the gorge. Do not forget to bring spare shoes, because part of the way we shall travel on the water. A huge waterfall escaping from the depths of the caves, ice water, myriads of splashes and very beautiful and wild nature will not leave anyone indifferent. Then there will be the track along the left side of the canyon, from the top of which we will see the worlds lost from the human view. Canyon going up for many kilometers, thanks to its unique structure was able to save the huge forests hidden in its winding labyrinths.

Dinner and overnight

For hardy group (group No. 1) – climbing to one of the three-thousand meters mountain of Bоysuntau massif. The transition will take ~ 16 hours in both directions, but the whole complexity of the rise will be compensated by unearthly views, opening from the top of the vertical rock having the height of more than 500 m, and by feeling of complete freedom.

The second group – we offer you a simple track to the karst plateau

  • Return to Boysun. We will return to the guest house we stayed in the first day. Here you can bathe and relax a little. After lunch, we shall trip to Kyzyl canyon.

    Kyzyl canyon - one of the wonders of nature. It is the unique natural object, stretching for more than 30 km, and consists of many gorges. Weathering and water gave the canyon a very bizarre shape. 

    Gala dinner and departure to the railway station. Departure to Tashkent by night train at 21:00.

    Overnight on train.
