Tajikistan

The route began in Samarkand, in the very east of Usbekistan. We then crossed the border to Tadjikistan at Penjinkent. Heading further east we reached the road M41, which is connecting Tashkent and Dushanbe, the capital of Tadjikistan. Afterwards in direction of Southeast, and then all along the border to Afghanistan to Khorog. This is the starting point of the "real" Pamir Highway which goes to Murghab and on to Kirgistan, to Sary Tash. Then cycling east to Erkeshtam Pass and on to China until Kashgar.

The red line marks the cycled route. The Markers show special points. Go with the mouse pointer of them - you will see then an infotext.
