About this trek
Walk from village to village through the Nuratau Mountains on a five-day route linking Majrum, Hayat, Ukhum, Asraf and Eski Forish. The experience combines mountain trails with petroglyphs, traditional homes, local hospitality and open views across the Kyzylkum desert-steppe toward Lake Aydar.
Your journey begins with a road transfer from Bukhara and ends with an onward transfer to Samarkand. Four village nights keep the route grounded in the landscapes and everyday rhythms of rural Uzbekistan.
