Varzob valley is
a favourite recreation area for Dushanbe residents. There are many recreation
areas and picnic spots here. It is widely known as a small geographic area
close to Dushanbe in the basin of the Varzob River, crossing the central part
of the southern slopes of the Hissar range. Highways connecting Dushanbe with
northern districts of the country and the Ferghana Valley, Istravshan (formerly
Uroteppa), Khujand (formerly Leninabad) and Aini and Panjakent, pass through
it.

The Lower Varzob
River, which changes name to “Dushanbinka”, flows into the wide plain in which
Dushanbe is situated, and further to the west of the capital, into the
Kofarnihon River. From its start to its exit into the plain, the Varzob Valley
is 72km long. The drop in altitude from the beginning of the river to its mouth
is about 1.5km. The flora of the Varzob River basin is rich and diverse. There
are juniper, walnut, maple, apple, cherryplum, and hawthorn trees, and shrubby
arboreal vegetation.

Not far from
Dushanbe, in Varzob valley is the Gusgarf Waterfall, the most beautiful in the
Hissar range. A wild river breached a vertical rocky cliff many centuries ago
and the water falls there from a height of 30m. A large volume of water
cascades to the bottom and scatters into a myriad of droplets that cheerfully
glitter in the sun. A footpath to the waterfall starts from the 21km marker in
Varzob Valley.

From here to the
waterfall is a 2-3 hours walk (about 8km). April-May is the best time for a
hike to the waterfall. At this time of year the mountain slopes are full of red
tulips, and hawthorn and other plants are in blossom. Those who love the
thrilling experience can test themselves in unusual water treatment.

There is a
fairly deep round pool here filled with ice-cold water, a fine spray from the
waterfall and a current powerful enough to send one sprawling. Apart from the
Gusgarf Waterfall the valleys of Siyoma, Ojuk, Kondara, Maikhura and Tagob
Rivers flowing into the Varzob River are also very popular.

The unique
beauty of these valleys is amazing. The slopes of the Ojuk Valley (25km from
Dushanbe), stretching dozens of kilometres deep into the mountains to the
north-east of Varzob, are covered with vines. There are also apple, cherry and
plum trees, but the main attraction in this valley is the numerous sycamores,
known by the local population as chanor. The valley obtained its name from the
Ojuk tributary which flows into the Varzob River.

There are about 2,000mm of precipitation per year here - almost three
times as much as in Dushanbe. In winter the snow level can reach 5m – almost as
high as a twostorey building. The other main sight in the Maikhura Valley is
the almost 6km long tunnel through the mountains, the construction of which began
several years ago.
