Overview
This biking tour starts above Iskanderkul Lake in a small village surrounded by vast peaks. Over the next several days and 80 miles of riding, it travels through the rugged Yagnob Valley. Early descents give way to long, steady road climbs past villages, rivers, and towering mountains in this stark and beautiful landscape.
The final leg follows miles of doubletrack to the top of a high ridge before a fast and steep descent rushes down to the village of Rufigar.
Need to Know
The gear and camping logistics of this multi-day point-to-point ride can be difficult to arrange in these beautiful but remote mountains.

Otherwise, if you're attempting this on your own, be sure to hire a car and driver to meet you at the end and to shuttle riders to the start.
