The 2-day Hidden Treasures of Zaamin Tour offers an opportunity to reconnect with nature and unwind in the mountains, in one of Uzbekistan’s most scenic regions with well-developed tourist infrastructure. Zaamin National Park, often called the “Uzbek Switzerland,” is known for its coniferous forests, high-altitude plateaus, and fresh air filled with the scent of pine and the sound of mountain streams.
Your journey begins with a short morning flight from Tashkent to the town of Zamin. Along the way to the park, you will stop at scenic viewpoints overlooking the Zamin Reservoir and have the chance to try local snacks. Highlights of the day include a walk to the waterfall, a cable car ride to the Suffa Plateau, dinner, and an overnight stay in a comfortable hotel. On the following day, you will visit a suspension bridge, natural landmarks, and mountain springs before returning to Tashkent on the Afrosiyob high-speed train.
The Hidden Treasures of Zaamin Tour is a short but enriching getaway into Uzbekistan’s mountain landscapes — a quiet interlude filled with natural beauty and fresh air.
