Description

Discover Azerbaijan’s colorful wonders! Marvel at Khizi’s Candy Cane Mountains, soar above Shahdag Resort by cable car, and taste local honey and sweets on the way back to Baku.
Our journey begins in Baku as we head north towards one of Azerbaijan’s most unique natural treasures — the Candy Cane Mountains in Khizi. These rolling hills are naturally painted in vivid red, pink, yellow, and white stripes, creating a surreal landscape that feels like stepping into another world. It’s a paradise for photographers, nature lovers, and anyone seeking a truly rare view.

From here, we continue to Shahdag Mountain Resort, where a scenic cable car ride awaits. Glide above the slopes and take in breathtaking panoramic views of the majestic Caucasus Mountains — an experience that will stay with you forever.

As we make our way back to Baku, the adventure ends on a sweet note: a stop at a local spot to taste authentic Azerbaijani candies and different varieties of mountain honey, each with its own distinctive flavor and story. This final treat perfectly complements a day filled with beauty, culture, and unforgettable moments.
