Nestled among the snowy heights of Ugam-Chatkal National Park, Uzbekistan’s largest nature reserve, is the wildly popular Chimgan Resort. Named after the main peak of the Chatkal Range and the largest town in the region, Chimgan’s otherworldly landscapes, fresh mountain air and much-acclaimed Charvak Lake are a convenient 2-hour drive from Tashkent.
The Chimgan and Charvak Day Tour is a refreshing detour from city life, an excursion to an area so exquisite that it attracts visitors from far and wide to its numerous resorts, beaches and summer camps. Spend the day among gently sloping peaks, mountain villages and the pristine waters of Charvak Lake, and you’ll quickly understand why this spot is a local favorite.
