2 Day Ukhum Hiking Tour from Bukhara

At 9:00 AM, meet with our driver and be transferred to Uhum village. You will arrive in the village by lunchtime and settle in the homestay. After lunch, you may explore the village on your own and get to know about the life of local people or just relax on tapchan (wooden platform) under the walnut trees. In the afternoon, there is an option to participate in the preparation of traditional dish Plov, made from homegrown vegetables and mountain spices.

After breakfast, start an easy guided hike to the Nuratau Nature Reserve (3.5-4 hours/ 4 km). Visit a petroglyph site, ancient irrigation channels, and the mausoleum of Islamic priests. Walking up through the village, you may see locals going about their daily activities (collecting firewood, harvesting, butter making, corn grinding, spinning, weaving, etc). Return to the homestay for lunch with your host family.

After lunch, you say goodbye to your hosts and return to Samarkand. The journey takes 4 hours. Our driver will drop you at your hotel or at the tour ending point.
