Cycling day trip from Tashkent to Salor

Set off from the vibrant center of Tashkent, Uzbekistan’s lively capital, and enjoy a ride heading northeast to Salor—a growing suburb known for its relaxed pace and green spaces at the edge of the city. The route covers just under 29 km, making it a solid option for a half-day cycling adventure, with some rolling hills but nothing too extreme.

You’ll pass through a pleasant mix of quiet residential roads and purpose-built cycleways, with only short stretches on busier streets. While the majority of the surface is a bit of a mystery (local adventure, anyone?), expect a good chunk of asphalt and concrete where it matters.

Take time to enjoy the transition from Tashkent’s historic bustle—full of wide boulevards, leafy parks, and lively bazaars—to Salor’s more laid-back and leafy charm. Overall, it’s a great escape from city traffic, offering you both urban energy and scenic outskirts along the way. Don’t forget to stop for a snack or a photo—you’ll find plenty of interesting corners to explore, especially as you near your destination!
