Pik Okhotnichiy 3,099 m: a route that “builds character”

Pik Okhotnichiy is 3,099 m, in the Chimgan mountain knot. Lower than Bolshoy Chimgan (3,309 m), but the card does not sell it as an easier Chimgan: the finish goes through rock and snowfields, for people “ready to overcome difficulties”.

It is the only one of the four that singles out spring: snowfields and flowering valleys.

Summary

The essentials in a minute

3,099 m, 1 day, 700,000 UZS per person
Snowfields, rock and flowering meadows; Bolshoy Chimgan from the top
Spring is the only seasonal marker on the card
Tashkent–Chimgan–Tashkent transport, guide, insurance included; food and personal gear not

In detail

01

Against its neighbours

Same price as Babaitag — 700,000 UZS, one day, start in Tashkent. Character is closer to an ascent than to an unhurried walk: snowfields on the finish.

Higher and longer: Karakush 3,864 m. Famous height in one day: Bolshoy Chimgan. Comparison.

02

The day on the programme

Start: leave Tashkent, arrive at the foot, briefing, climb through green slopes.

Summit 3,099 m: rock and snowfields, view of Bolshoy Chimgan, gorges and space, descent, return to Tashkent. No overnight on the card — 1 day. (An older leisure article mentioned overnighting differently; here we follow the tour page.)

03

Spring — the only season named

There is no “June–September” on this card. One sentence: spring is especially beautiful because of snowfields and bright flowering valleys. We do not invent the rest of the calendar.

Package: transport, guide, insurance. Not included: food, water, trekking shoes, clothes for the weather. Highlights mention “gear”; the included list does not — this article counts only the included list. Tour: Pik Okhotnichiy.

Takeaway

Conclusion

Okhotnichiy is 3,099 m in one day, 700,000 UZS, snowfields and rock, view of Bolshoy Chimgan. Food is yours. Pik Okhotnichiy.
