Itinerary:
Day 1: Tashkent – Yangiabad Hostel (125 km)
Transfer to the Yangiabad Hostel. Accommodation in comfortable double rooms. Rest. Lunch time. After lunch walking tour to a "pigeon gorge" waterfall, which takes 2-2.5 hours. Returning to the hostel. Free time. Dinner.
Day 2: Yangiabad Hostel – Bezimyanniy Pass – Chilten river – Tashkent
This day is the main part of the active tour. After breakfast and a short rest, we come to the cableway track and start going up the gorge, leading to the crest of the ridge, separating the valleys of Kattasay and Chilten rivers. A faint trail winds through the rocks and bushes and in 1.5 hours it takes us to a small spring, percolating almost through the roots of a spreading tree.
After drinking the crystal clear spring water and having a short rest in the shade of a tree, we continue to climb and in 15-20 minutes we reach the saddle of the pass. The crest opens a fascinating panorama of the upper river of Chilten as well as the Miner and Babaytag Peaks (3520 m).
After a short rest, enjoying the panorama, we start the descent from the pass to the valley of the Chilten river. In 1.5 hours of a quite steep descent, we reach a group of trees, growing on the shores of the Chilten river, where we stop for a lunch. After lunch, we walk up the Chilten river to the waterfalls and return back to the road, where our driver will wait for us. Transfer to Tashkent. End of the program.
