Masazirgol - Pink Lake (Masazir) is the most distinctive lake in Azerbaijan, celebrated for its extraordinary color. Among the eight pink lakes worldwide, one is located in Azerbaijan.
Note: From December 1 to March 31, visits to Pink Lake Masazyr are temporarily halted as the lake loses its pink hue due to natural conditions. This provides more time to explore other key itinerary locations, such as the Shahdag Mountain Resort, enhancing the tour’s richness and comfort. This location is unavailable until April 30. - Multi-Colored Mountains of Khyzy - Our next destination is truly unique and special. Known as the Candy Cane Mountains or Colored Mountains, this natural wonder of Azerbaijan offers a spectacular view. The mountains resemble candies or sweets, with bright reds blending into whites and pinks, creating a stunning visual.
- Besh Barmag Mountain - The M1 motorway connects Azerbaijan’s capital to Russia’s largest cities, passing through beautiful landscapes, including the peaks of Beshbarmaq Mountain. Numerous legends surround this mountain, including tales of its peak serving as a guide for sailors in the past. A revered site, “Pir Hydyr Zundzha,” is located here, where many stop to pray and worship. Professional guides from Azerbaijan Travel International will share both mythical stories and the true history of the area’s inhabitants.

Shahdag Baki - I had an amazing trip to Shahdag, and it was truly a memorable experience. The landscapes were absolutely stunning — from the fresh mountain air to the breathtaking views, everything felt peaceful and refreshing.
What made the trip even more special was our wonderful guide, Nazperi. She was professional, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. She explained everything clearly, was always attentive to the group, and made sure everyone felt comfortable and enjoyed the journey. Her positive energy and passion really added value to the whole experience.
Thanks to Nazperi, the trip was well-organized, fun, and stress-free. I highly recommend visiting Shahdag, and if you get the chance to have Nazperi as your guide, you’re guaranteed to have a fantastic time!

An unforgettable experience in Azerbaijan - My trip to Azerbaijan was truly unforgettable, and visiting Quba and Shahdag was one of the absolute highlights. These two destinations are a must for anyone coming to the country.
Quba is rich in culture, history, and natural beauty. The mountain landscapes, traditional villages, and the calm atmosphere give you a deep sense of Azerbaijani heritage and hospitality. It’s a perfect place to disconnect from city life and experience authentic local culture.
Shahdag, on the other hand, is simply breathtaking. Whether you visit in winter or summer, the views are spectacular. The Shahdag Mountain Resort offers world-class facilities, fresh mountain air, and incredible scenery. It’s ideal for nature lovers, adventure seekers, and anyone who wants to experience the beauty of the Caucasus Mountains.
What truly made this trip special was Naz. Her sweetness, positive energy, and deep knowledge of local culture made the experience even more meaningful. She made everyone feel comfortable and welcomed, always sharing stories, traditions, and little cultural details that you wouldn’t find in a guidebook. Her kindness and good energy really reflect the warm spirit of Azerbaijan.
I highly recommend visiting Quba and Shahdag, and if you have the chance to experience the trip with someone like Naz, it will turn a great journey into a truly memorable one.
