MIJGON (62 km from Penjikent). Usually, the first lake that travelers see, the lowest lake — Mijgon — is located at an altitude of 1640 meters above sea level. Its name comes from the Tajik word "eyelashes". Lake Mijgon has a depth of up to 20 meters, an area of 0.05 square kilometers.

16:00 – we will reach the 3rd Lake Hushor, and a rest time about 1 hour
HUSHOR (2,8/1,0 km from Soya). The third lake, Khushor, is 400 meters from Soy, and when you get close to it, you will see a turbulent stream connecting them. Lake Khushor is located at an altitude of 1771 meters and covers an area of 0.23 square kilometers.
17:00 – arriving 4th Lake Nofin.
NOFIN Lake lies 400 meters from Hushor lake. It is highly extended as it is more than 2,5 km long but only about 200 meters wide. Lake Nofin is located at an altitude of 1820 meters and covers an area of 0.48 square kilometers.
In Soviet times, the Marguzor Lakes campsite was located next to this lake. However, a mudflow from the mountains demolished the camp, leaving only traces of its foundation. Although this may indicate some danger, the lake looks quite calm, and in good weather, you can watch schools of fish swimming calmly in clear water.
19:00 – dinner and overnight in homestay Jumaboy
