From the plains to the mountains

The diverse nature of Azerbaijan will help every tourist to find his own.

Below we will introduce you to the nature of Azerbaijan from plains and forests to snow-capped mountain peaks.

  1. Gobustan Archaeological Reserve is located between the Caspian Sea and the Greater Caucasus. This area belongs to the low mountains. On the rocks there are drawings of ancient people. It is quite hot here and during the trip we recommend stocking up more water. In addition to the reserve itself, you can climb to the top, which offers a magnificent view of the Absheron Peninsula. You can book an 8-hour tour of Gobustan and Absheron.
  2. The largest cluster of mud volcanoes in the Caucasus is located in Gobustan. These volcanoes are located in the low part of Gobustan. These are all active volcanoes. Some volcanoes even fell into the Guinness Book of Records. In Azerbaijan there are 300 of the 700 species of famous mud volcanoes. By the way, we have a 6-hour excursion to mud volcanoes.
  3. In Guba, Hussars, Shamakhi, Gabala, Zagatala in the foothills, a dense forest grows and rivers flow. Feel free to go on a journey for nature to these areas. You can climb the mountains, take a walk through the forests or enjoy the coolness of the rivers. In Guba, at an altitude of 2000 meters, the village of Khinalig is located. If you want to look at this amazing village, take our tour.
  4. For lovers of mountains and snow, Mount Shahdag and Tufandag in northern Azerbaijan are suitable. Year-round snow and frost are provided to you. In winter, the temperature drops below zero, which leads to freezing waterfalls. On the territory there are beautiful lakes and ski resorts. Here you can go skiing, snowboarding or a quad bike.
  5. Talysh mountains are located in the southeast of Azerbaijan. Here is the Hyrcanic National Park, where a relict forest grows. Subtropical climate prevails. Great place for walking, picnicking and just breathing in fresh air.
