Bicycle tour
The mountain towns in the Parkent region around Tashkent offer a charming insight into countryside life, and one of the best ways for you to explore them in by bicycle. Taking your time and stopping along the way, you'll be able to meet the local communities in mountain villages like Zarkent, Sukok, Champagne, and Nevich. Although you can travel independently, there are also tours that will lead you through the region, with the choice of a regular bicycle or an ebike.
The scenic roads through the foothills are famous for their stunning panoramas. For cyclists, it's convenient that these backcountry roads are also free from city traffic and tucked away in the quiet Chatkal mountains. As you explore, ask the locals or your guide about where to buy fresh fruits for a healthy snack. For something more substantial, there are restaurants along the way serving national stews, exotic meats, and succulent pastries.
For the extra adventurous, heli-biking will take groups into the mountains. Explore vineyards by bike and enjoy the scenic ride. This form of transportation is about immersing yourself in the beautiful scenery, meeting companions, and experiencing Uzbek culture.
