What to expect

Our trip today is to high Mountain lake – Iskanderkul (2 255 m. a. s. l.). It is situated in the famous Fann Mountains. This fabulous area is one of the best places in Central Asia. The road to the lakes goes over Anzob pass (2772 m) with amazing panorama views. After arrival at the lake, you will go for a walk along its beaches. Also you can hike 40 minutes to see an amazing and hugest waterfall in Tajikistan known as Niagara of Fann Mountains. Near the Iskandarkul Lake situated the Snake Lake and 5 km further the Fife Springs. After having the rest near the lake we will drive back to Dushanbe
Iskanderkul Lake in northern Tajikistan’s Fann Mountains is considered one of the most gorgeous lakes in the former Soviet Union, and one glance at its calm, pristine waters will leave you convinced of this claim. Iskanderkul Lake means “Lake of Alexander the Great”, for legend has it that the world conqueror stopped at the lake during his travels. Whether or not these rumors are true, the enduring waters of Iskanderkul Lake, accentuated by nearby Fann Niagara Waterfall and the encircling snow-capped mountains that graze the sky, will stretch your imagination and stay with you long after you’ve departed.
