Turquoise lakes below five-thousand-metre peaks, Sogdian ruins and homestays in mountain villages.
The Fann Mountains are Tajikistan’s most accessible range, an hour from the Uzbek border and Samarkand: turquoise lakes like the Seven Lakes of the Haft Kul and Iskanderkul below peaks of more than five thousand metres, with homestays and trekking routes between them. Panjakent, at the foot of the range, has the ruins of an ancient Sogdian city on the Silk Road.
