Hiking to Kabanye Gorge in Odjuk, Varzob, mountains of Tajikistan

Hiking to Kabanye Gorge in Odjuk, Varzob, mountains of Tajikistan
The Odjuk Gorge seems familiar and nearby, but in reality, it is very large with many branches leading to small gorges in different directions. Among these small gorges, there are many unusual and beautiful ones, and today I am introducing one of them to you - the Kabanye Gorge. I do not know why it is called "Kabanye," perhaps because wild boars roam around, but I am not a hunter and cannot say anything on this matter. The Kabanye Gorge is also called the "Jacuzzi" Gorge due to the many indentations in the rocks along the river that flows through it, which really resemble Jacuzzis.

These very "Jacuzzis" will be the final destination of our journey today. The path to the Kabanye Gorge begins in the Odjuk Gorge between the third and fourth bridges. If you have walked here before, you may remember the ascent after the third bridge. After overcoming this ascent and walking about 50-100 meters, you will see a small path going up the mountain. This is the beginning of our journey to the Kabanye Gorge, but let's take it step by step.

From the second bridge, we can say that the "mountains" begin, and we are greeted here by Mount Natasha and the Jidovaya Grove.

Unfortunately, I did not take off the very beginning of the trail, for some reason. But here you can clearly see the road below, which goes along Odjuk and on the right the path that leads to the Boar gorge.

In these photos, a close-up Jacuzzi, of course, there are much more, but only a few fell into the frame. Since it’s not very convenient to swim, take a walk and walk along the river back and forth.
