The scenic and snow-capped mountains can be found everywhere in Tajikistan. The Pamir and Fann Mountain Ranges offer jaw-dropping trekking activities across the country. In this blog, I mostly focus on one-day treks in Pamir and Fann Mountain Ranges.
What you need to pack before you do trekking on Pamir Highway
- Warm clothes if you do overnight in the mountains
- Sunglasses, suncream
- Water/windproof clothes. It gets windy on top of mountains.
- Walking sticks. No problem if not.
- Medicines to treat diarrhea. Some tourists have a problem with local food and they get diarrhea problems.
- Water clearing powders in case you run out of bottled water or you have a problem with spring waters.
- Your lips get chapped easily in the mountains. So bring your lipstick.
- Wet napkins to clean the hand
- Cap to protect from sun and hat to wear at night.
- Good sleeping bags. Yurts and homestays provide with blankets.
- Some yurts or homestays have fleas. Get a flea killer or something that drive them away.
