• Besh Barmag Mountain - After being picked up, travel approximately 90 minutes from Baku to Beshbarmag Mountain in the Siyazan District. Known as “Five Fingers” due to its distinctive rock formations, this 382-meter peak is a notable pilgrimage site and viewpoint along the main northern highway. Explore the small shrine area associated with ancient spiritual traditions and local legends, including tales linked to Noah’s Ark. Enjoy a brief, easy climb and take in the panoramic views over the Caspian coast and Siyazan lowlands, with guided historical and natural insights during a 60-minute visit.
• Candy Cane Mountain - The tour proceeds to the Candy Cane Mountains, situated in the Khizi District, accessible by a 50-minute drive from Beshbarmag. Located near the town of Khizi along the Baku-Quba highway, this geological formation is renowned for its vibrant red, pink, white, and orange mineral bands. These color variations are created through long-term oxidation processes affecting iron-rich sediments. The striped patterns become more pronounced under low-angle sunlight and serve as a visually striking example of Azerbaijan’s geological diversity. The color bands are a result of mineral weathering rather than stratified sediment layering, giving the hills their unique painted look. Visitors spend about 60 minutes exploring the area with guidance explaining the geological processes and visual features.
  The tour concludes after visiting the Candy Cane Mountains. The return journey to Baku takes 80 minutes, concluding with drop-off at the hotel or chosen meeting point.
