Pearls of Ustyurt Plateau
A fascinating one-day tour to Barsakelmas salt marsh and Sudochye Lake. The lake is located in the delta of the Amu-Darya River to the South-East of the Aral Sea, and nowadays is fed by the Raushan canal, and represents 4 water bodies.
On the banks of the Sudochye there was a fishing village Urga, founded by fugitive Cossacks after Pugachev's uprising. On Cape Urga you can find the ruins of a lighthouse left by the ancient Massaget tribes.
Lake Sudochye have a great importance for ornithologists, having received the status of the most important ornithological territory and being a part of the Ramsar Convention. It is on the migration route of many birds from Siberia and tundra, which makes it home to more than 230 species of birds, including rare representatives listed in the Red Book of Uzbekistan and the world.
After Sudochye Lake we will drive to an amazing salt marsh with the terrifying name Barsakelmes - "you go, you won't come back". This place strikes the imagination with its boundless and lifeless salt surface. The size of the salt marsh is 30 by 60 kilometers. The best time to visit it is at sunrise and sunset, when the play of light and shadow creates unique landscapes.
