Osh - Kazarman

In the morning, departure from Och and head northeast. After a journey through the Ferghana Valley, a stop is made in Uzgen, an ancient caravan city on the Silk Road. The lively bazaar is explored, where fragrant spices, dried fruits, and local crafts are mingled, followed by a visit to the Uzgen mausoleums, magnificent remnants from the Karakhanid era, bearing witness to the region's rich historical past.

The journey continues towards Jalal-Abad, a town nestled at the foot of the mountains, where a pause is taken to enjoy a typical lunch in a local restaurant. In the afternoon, the ascent towards the Ferghana Range begins, taking a spectacular road that leads to the Kaldama Pass (3,000 m). From there, the landscape changes dramatically: the road winds through wild and isolated valleys, offering magnificent panoramas of the surrounding mountains. 

A long descent towards the arid plain of Kazarman is then begun, crossing pastures where nomadic shepherds raise their herds. By the end of the day, Kazarman is reached, where accommodation is arranged with local hosts within the community-based tourism network. Dinner and overnight stay in Kazarman.
