Holidays in Derweze

Forgetting what your last sickie excuse was is a sure-fire sign that you need a break. So why not step off the beaten track to Derweze and get lost in the impressive coastal plains and rivers of Turkmenistan? (The only thing you'll have to remember is how to chillax!)

It sits 250 kilometres north of the country's capital, Ashgabat.

Find some time for discovering Mother Nature's handiwork at Darvaza Flaming Crater. This delightful natural beauty spot is situated just 5 kilometres away from Derweze.

When you want to unleash the adventurer within, get ready for some mountain climbing. That said, there aren't many better ways to experience the beauty of the region's landscapes than with a bit of hiking.

There's no saying just what you'll see in the region's history museums, but you can be sure it'll be captivating!

On a fine day, pack up the kids and head outside to investigate the surrounding area's open-air exhibits and open-air markets.

Travel back in time by calling on a few ruins, old towns, fortresses and historic palaces. When it comes to understanding the historical significance of these structures, an enlightened tour guide can offer some deeper insight.

If you're seeking an experience that goes beyond the material world, consider visiting some churches and mosques. It's a great opportunity to find out more about Derweze's religious beliefs.

Tingle your taste buds and fill your Instagram account with mouthwatering snaps by tasting some of the region's best food and drink offerings. Just don't forget to hashtag 'yum'!

Looking for some insight into the local cuisine? We suggest getting a taste for rice and pumpkin, two staple ingredients which make up many of the dishes here.

There's always a local meal or two that you need to experience, and during your time in Derweze, sous (meat, potatoes, carrots) is definitely one of them. Shashlyk (grilled mutton) is another well-loved dish that you should keep an eye out for.

'Stressed' spelled backwards is 'desserts', and we don't think that's a coincidence. There's no better way to wave goodbye to your worries than with zebra cake (marble cake), a treat often found on dinner tables here.
