About this Journey
After breakfast, we'll journey back to Turkmenabat. En route, we'll make a stop to visit the "Kaynar Baba" sulfur spring. Nestled in the "Karlyuk" steppe, this unique lake is one of the country's most remarkable natural wonders. Despite its small size – only 25 meters in diameter – the "Kaynar Baba" lake boasts crystal-clear water, revealing a bed adorned with small stones that create a picturesque scene. Upon arrival in Atamyrat, we'll pause for lunch before continuing our journey alongside the Amu Daria river. We'll reach Turkmenabad in the afternoon. In the evening, we'll board the night train bound for Ashgabat city.
