    Beautiful waterfall that sits off the main road from Bash-Kayindi to Ozgorush. I was there two weeks ago, and there is already a sign at the road (18 kilometers to the waterfall). Also, in the works to repair the road that can shorten your way that leads to the horseshoe bend from where you can hike, it shortens the trail considerably. Also, this trail can be done on horseback in about hour hours.

    Magnifique randonnée à faire pour atteindre la cascade Shaar, la plus haute d’Asie centrale.
    Compter 3h30 environ de randonnée pour atteindre la cascade avec un niveau intermédiaire. Si vous avez un 4x4, je vous recommande de faire la première partie de la rando en voiture, le chemin de départ étant pratiquable (et plutôt ennuyeux à marcher).
    À partir des camps de yurts, les décors se succèdent et sont à couper le souffle !

    Nous avons pu observer vaches, chevaux, sortes de yack, marmottes et surtout le meilleur, énormément d’aigles !

    Ce jour ci nous étions seuls au monde, juste face à une nature incroyable.
