Uzbekistan Cycling Tours

Leave the busy Silk Road highways behind and discover Uzbekistan by bike. Our fully supported cycling tours in Uzbekistan take you far beyond the famous cities, following quiet mountain tracks, gravel roads and village trails through some of the country’s most spectacular landscapes.

Ride through the vineyards, mountain roads and lake views of the Chatkal Mountains, the juniper forests of Zaamin National Park, and the remote villages of the Nuratau range, down to the shores of Lake Aydarkul on the edge of the Kyzylkum Desert. Along the way, you’ll travel with experienced local cycling guides while a support vehicle carries your luggage, water and bike spares.

Whether you have two days or ten, there is a route to match. Our shorter Uzbekistan cycling tours turn the journey between Samarkand and Bukhara into an adventure, crossing the Nuratau Mountains with nights in a traditional yurt camp or village homestay. Our ten-day Cycling the Silk Road journey links three mountain regions in one ride, beginning in Tashkent and finishing among the madrasahs and bazaars of Samarkand.

Every tour is designed for active travellers who want more than a standard sightseeing trip. You’ll ride quality Scott mountain bikes, stay in comfortable hotels, private yurts at Sayyod Yurt Camp, and family homestays where meals are freshly prepared by your hosts.

Cycling with us means travelling with the people who live here. Our tours grew out of an award-winning community tourism project in the Nuratau Mountains, and the guides, drivers, host families and cooks on your route are all local — so every ride puts income directly into the mountain villages you pedal through.

Join us for one of our unforgettable cycling tours in Uzbekistan, where mountain passes, desert horizons and legendary Silk Road cities come together in a single journey.
