Seven Lakes, Tajikistan - Marguzor
I went on a 3 day weekend trip to 7 lakes from Dushanbe. It took about 7 hours I believe to get there and we stayed at a homestay while there. It was a wonderful trip and I highly recommend, I went in September and it was a great time to go!
Seven Lakes, Tajikistan - At the 7th lake, Hazorchashma
12 August 2016 - Southeast of the city of Panjakent, Tajikistan is the Seven Lakes (Marguzor Lakes, Haft Kul), a string of seven deep blue to aquamarine lakes in the Fan Mountains linked together by a single dirt road. Here, we are at the seventh and highest lake, Hazorchashma, 2450 m above sea level, on the second day of trekking beginning at the first lake. We had camped at the sixth lake the previous night, and I was awestruck at the beautiful colours of the lake and how they would change depending on the time of day, and how much light was reflecting on them.
Tajikistan continues to astound me! All throughout the hike, we would meet shepherds and villagers with their flock of sheep or goats. It was great to see rural life in a secluded region and whenever I look at my photos from these days, I'm so grateful that I was able to be in such an environment! #SummerWithTheStans was always full of beautiful scenery and friendly people!

Zeravshan Valley and 7 Lakes of Shing- Northern Tajikistan
During my trip across Central Asia I journeyed to this amazing area of Northern Tajikistan. I will let the images speak for themselves. Yes the sky is that blue and yes the lakes are that colour! and glacial cold too!
The Zeravshan Valley (also Zarafshan or Zarafshon) is situated in northern Tajikistan, embedded between the impressive mountain ranges of the western Pamir-Alai massive.“Zeravshan” – which means “Golden River” in Tajik –is the main stream which crosses the valley and which supplies its inhabitants with a most precious resource: water. The area is famous for its unique mountain landscapes and its beautiful lakes: the Alauddin lakes, the Kulikalon lakes, Iskanderkul Lake, the seven lakes of Shing among many others. While being an important tourism and recreation destination during the Soviet era of dispatch tourism, it is now an insiders' tip among those interested in mountain trekking, alpinism and the little travelled branches of the silk road.

7 Glacier Lakes - Dushanbe, Tajikistan
A few weeks ago, we went on a trip to the 7 Lakes in Tajikistan during our first weekend there. It can be anywhere from a 5-8 hour drive from Dushanbe depending on the type of car you take and number of stops you make along the way. It happened to collide with our one year anniversary weekend, so we made it a point to go and also to take a dip in the seventh lake!
It's such a beautiful place, very remote, and still untouched by big tour groups. If you ever get the chance, you should definitely try to go!
If you find yourself in Tajikistan, definitely get in touch with Dennis from Hike Tajikistan. He's the man and can help you out with any of your hiking needs!

Iskandarkul - Marguzor: FKT Trailer
We're raising money for the Archa Foundation in Central Asia! Wayne C is attempting an FKT (Fastest Known Time) from Iskandarkul to Marguzor in Tajikistan!
60+km, 4000+m of elevation gain over 3 mountain passes!
**********
The Archa Foundation exists to promote the wild spaces of Tajikistan! We want to see more people enjoying the incredible natural beauty of this part of the world! First and foremost we want to see local young people experiencing the amazing mountains - we have already been facilitating this for the last 5 years.
This FKT attempt is seeking to raise money for a bouldering project. The Saritag Valley, which Wayne will run through, is full of highball boulders. These are a fantastic way of learning the fundamentals of rock-climbing and experiencing the joy of the sport. With the inclusion of climbing (including bouldering) in the 2020 Olympic Games - and with a Tajik team aiming to participate - we want to make these boulders more accessible.

The Seven Lakes
The Seven Lakes or Seven Beauties are located 50 km from Pajnakent, Tajikistan. According to a Tajik legend a long time ago an old man got lost in the valley and his seven daughters came to look for him. They never found him. They cried for their loss and the tears became these seven lakes. The seven lakes appear in the following succession: Mijgon, Saya, Gushor, Nofin, Marguzor, and Hazorchashma. Lake Mijgon (Persian: مژگان) is shown in this video. I visited Tajikistan in March 2016. This is part of my project to photograph a day in the life of The Silk Road.
