• Panjakent - Connect with the driver at your hotel for a transfer to the Uzbek-Tajik border. Upon arrival at the border, you will need to walk across. After completing border formalities, you will be greeted by the Tajikistan staff and driven to Penjikent.
• Seven Lakes - Travel to Marghuzor, the first lake, situated at an altitude of 1,640 meters. Its name translates to “eyelashes” in Tajik, and it is renowned for its vibrant colors. Next, visit Soya Lake, which means “shadow” due to its location between high cliffs, keeping it shaded most of the day. The third lake, Gushor, is only 400 meters from Soya, connected by a turbulent stream. Meaning “watchful,” this lake is surrounded by steep cliffs. The fourth lake, Nofin, is the central lake, translating to “umbilical cord” due to its 2.5 km length. The fifth lake, Khurdak, is 1.5 km from Nofin, passing through the picturesque village of Pardut. Known as “the baby,” it is the smallest of the seven lakes. The sixth lake, Marguzor, is the largest and considered by many to be the most beautiful of the Seven Lakes.
• Seven Lakes - An optional hike from the sixth lake to Hazorchashma, the seventh and highest of the Seven Lakes, located at approximately 2,400 meters above sea level. Hazorchashma, meaning “a thousand springs,” is fed by two rivers and numerous streams and springs. It is the final lake in the Shing River gorge. The distance is 2.5 km one way with an elevation gain of 340 meters.
