After having lunch near the waterfall, we will continue by car down the road for about 15 minutes, and then we will start riding our bicycles on a slope down the asphalt road. In 30 minutes we will arrive at Baznavid village. There you will visit an ancient cemetery known as ‘Lion Cemetery’, because of lion-like statues on the graves of the courageous Nomad men. After Baznavid village we will cycle for another 3 hours uphill and around 19:00 we will arrive at Nomads’ black tent. For the night, we will stay with the Nomads and we have the chance to get to know them & their unique culture.
