Daily program: The Pamir Highway motorcycle trip!

Day 1: Arrival in Osh - Kyrgyzstan

After our flight, we arrive in Osh, the second largest city in Kyrgyzstan. We get picked up and can rest for a few hours in our hotel. After lunch, we familiarize ourselves with the motorcycles on a short tour outside the city. We spend the night in Osh.

Day 2: Day trip to Lake Papan with pass drive

Today's day trip (approx. 150 km) first takes us to Lake Papan, the water reservoir of Osh. We ride through a green valley on unpaved gravel roads and then over one of the many passes south of the city. In the afternoon, we return to Osh on a well-paved road.

Day 3: Ride through the Kyrgyz Fergana Valley to Khujand in Tajikistan

Today's ride is long and dusty. However, we are rewarded with many new impressions, unknown to us, that make us forget all the efforts. The beer in the evening at our lovely hotel tastes even better.

Day 4: Ride to Lake Iskander

We leave the agriculturally influenced Fergana Valley and cross the first major pass on a good road. This takes us further through a deep, wild gorge to the turnoff to Lake Iskander. On the natural road, we reduce our speed to safely navigate the switchbacks to the lake. We spend the night right by the turquoise-blue lake.

Day 5: Pass drive to Dushanbe

While our support vehicle drives through the notorious Anzob Tunnel on the way to Dushanbe, we cross a pass over 3,000 meters high. Since all traffic goes through the dark and wet tunnel, we have the impressive pass all to ourselves. We spend the night in Dushanbe.

Day 6: To Kalaikum, the starting point of the Pamirs

There are two ways to get to Kalaikum: either on the winter route in southern Tajikistan or on the M41 across the mountains, over bumpy roads that are sometimes interrupted by streams. We choose the second, more challenging but all the more appealing route if possible. We spend the night in a homestay. Here, we have the opportunity to gain insight into the daily life of a Tajik family and also enjoy their generous hospitality.

Day 7: Ride to Khorog

The mighty Panj River accompanies us to Khorog. The river and road wind through a fascinating rock gorge. On the other side of the river, almost every green patch is used as a location for an Afghan village. Khorog, a university town in the middle of the Pamir, offers us a cozy hotel and a good dinner.

Day 8: Continue to Bibi Fatima

Our continued journey takes us through the Wakhan Valley, along the border with Afghanistan to Bibi Fatima. The Wakhan Valley is inhabited by a distinct ethnic group. These people differ not only in their own language but also in external appearance and culture from the Tajiks. In Bibi Fatima, we have a magnificent view of the Wakhan Valley. Of course, we also take advantage of the hot spring, which is idyllically located in a rock grotto and invites us to a wonderful bath with water over 40 degrees warm. We spend the night in Bibi Fatima.

Day 9: Ride to the Pamir Plateau at 4,000 meters altitude

On the way to the Pamir Plateau, the air becomes thinner, but the visibility is clearer. Apart from wild camels, yaks, and a few shepherds, we are alone in this seclusion. We spend the night in a homestay by Lake Bulunkul and have time to visit hot springs and a 'mini-geyser'.

Day 10: On the Pamir Highway

We are now on the legendary Pamir Highway or M41. The road was built by the Soviets along the Afghan and Chinese border. Today it is still partially used by Chinese transport vehicles. We cross four passes over 4,000 meters high. The Ak-Baital Pass, at 4,655 meters, is the highest of them all. In Murgab, a former coal mining town, we spend the night in a hotel and can, apart from hot springs, finally take a shower again after days.

Day 11: To Lake Karakul and over the Kyzyl-Art Pass back to Kyrgyzstan

Our continued journey takes us to the beautifully situated Karakul Lake. We spend the night in Karakul directly by the lake. The next day we cross our last pass, the Kyzyl-Art at an altitude of 4,200 meters. Here we reach the border to Kyrgyzstan.

Day 12: Basecamp Pik Lenin, return to Osh

Before returning to Osh, we take a detour to the base camp of Pik Lenin at over 3,500 meters altitude and enjoy a fantastic view of this mountain giant in good weather.

Day 13: Conclusion of the round trip

The last 250 km show us a completely different scenery compared to the impressive Pamir Mountains. Colorful rocks and changing vegetation merge wonderfully. In the evening, we return...

Day 14: Osh

The last day of our Pamir tour belongs to the city of Osh. We have enough time for a city tour or a visit to a market.

Day 15: Departure from Osh

Early in the morning, we are taken from the hotel to the airport, where we already take our flight back home.
