From Baku: Hidden Garanohur Lake Forest Trek

Embark on a guided hiking tour from Shamakhi to Ismayilli. Enjoy a traditional Azerbaijani breakfast, hike through Shahdag National Park, and discover the mystical Garanohur Lake.
Begin your adventure with a morning stop in the historic region of Shamakhi, where you can enjoy a peaceful traditional Azerbaijani breakfast. Indulge in hot tandoor bread, fresh country butter, mountain honey, thick cream (gaymag), aromatic tea, and "pomidor-yumurta" (traditional scrambled eggs with juicy tomatoes).

After breakfast, continue your scenic drive toward the Ismayilli region. Upon arrival in Ismayilli, enter the breathtaking territory of the Shahdag National Park. Here, your hiking experience truly begins as you immerse yourself in dense emerald forests, cross rocky mountain rivers, tackle gentle ascents and descents, and marvel at the spectacular views of the Caucasus mountain canyons and cliffs.

The absolute highlight of the trek is the mysterious Garanohur Lake, hidden deep inside the forest at an altitude of 1,544 meters above sea level. This unique spot holds a magical atmosphere, seemingly cut off from the rest of the world. The crystal-clear, mirror-like water perfectly reflects the surrounding ancient trees, creating a stunning optical illusion where reality and reflection blur.

Your professional guide will share the local legends, the mystical history, and the secrets behind this incredible natural phenomenon right on the shore. Here, take a long rest, light a campfire, and enjoy a delicious picnic.
