Guba-Khinalig Day Trip (Transfer to Khynaliq included)｜Azerbaijan

Begin your journey in Baku and head to the Pink Lake, famous for its unusual hue. Note: During the winter period (from December 1 to March 31), visits to the Pink Lake Masazyr are temporarily suspended, because natural conditions cause the lake to lose its characteristic pink shade.
This allows more time to be spent at other key locations of the itinerary, including the village of Khinalig, which makes the tour even richer and more comfortable.
Continue to the Candy Cane Mountains, known for their striking purple-stained hues resembling sugar candies.

Next, stop at Beshbarmag Mountain, a sacred site with deep cultural significance for Azerbaijanis. Enjoy stunning views of the Great North Caucasian Ridge and learn about the legends surrounding this area.

Enjoy lunch in Guba, tasting traditional Azerbaijani dishes. After lunch, drive through the Gechresh forest, a stunning, dense forest that creates a natural tunnel above your head.

Continue to the Gudialchay gorge, one of the oldest geophysical sites in Azerbaijan. Take a half-hour walk on an asphalt road that winds between towering, majestic rocks alongside a roaring mountain river.

Finally, arrive at Khinalig, the highest settlement in Azerbaijan, perched at 2500 meters above sea level in the Alpine meadows climatic zone. Explore this Caucasian village, where the people speak a language unlike any other in the world. With its steep, narrow streets laid between houses built from river boulders, Khinalig is a living museum, dating back about 4000 years.
