Our previous hike in the 21-kilometer section of the Varzob Gorge was in winter, and we made it up to the poplar grove where we set up camp and ended our journey. With the arrival of spring, we can now hike further in a day, for example, to the waterfall. That's what we'll do on this hike, we'll reach the waterfall in the 21st kilometer of the Varzob Gorge.

This time everything was more enjoyable, firstly because of the spring season, and secondly, we went on this off-road vehicle that made it more fun and exciting.

We reached the poplar grove, that is, almost to where we had ended the previous campaign.

Further, we moved on foot, along this road, to the waterfall on 21 km of the Varzob gorge.

Now, in April, all the small rivers are full-flowing.

Everything blooms, grows, the grass is of some emerald color, though not for long, by the end of May everything will burn out, probably.

In general, the gorge at 21 km, very picturesque, is found everywhere, such interesting piles of stones.

The path winds upside down, between stones, thickets.

Diverse views, slopes.

Also blooming almonds, tulips, rhubarb and more are found.

Finally, we reached the Fanfarok waterfall, which, therefore, is the ultimate goal of our trip.

The top of the Fanfarok Falls.

A bowl of Fanfarok Falls, so to speak.

For scale, one photo with me.
Sorry for the quality, the fakir was drunk and the focus failed. :)

Photo, on the way back, the gorge further than the poplar meadow, if you go closer to the city.

Here is the Dushanbe-Khujand highway, which means the end of the campaign.

Until we meet again.

Photos of this trip were used to create a slide show, see it here:
