Book this small group tour to Guba and Khinalig for a full-day experience of Azerbaijan's remote beauty, panoramic views, village culture, and a hearty local lunch with lamb, lula, pilaf, and more.
Candy Cane Mountains
Our journey to explore Khinalig’s history begins with a stop at the Candy Cane Mountains, located in the foothills of the North Caucasus near the Khizi mountains. This area is home to the Daghlis, an Azerbaijani Persian group. Known for their stunning, colorful slopes, the Candy Cane Mountains are named for their striking purple and pastel hues.
Beshbarmag Mountain
About 100 kilometers from Baku, we encounter Beshbarmag, a sacred mountain whose name means "Five Fingers." This region, historically inhabited by the Azerbaijanis-Daghli, holds cultural significance in Azerbaijani folklore, linked to the Quranic figure Khadir. The mountain, with its ancient mosque and shops, has been a pilgrimage site since the days of the caravan routes. Visitors stop here to rest, enjoy the stunning views, and hear stories of the region’s rich history.
Quba city, Krasnaya Sloboda
An hour’s drive along the North Caucasus foothills brings us to Guba, the capital of the Guba district. Quba is home to the Krasnaya Sloboda settlement, where mountain Jews (Mizrahi Jews) have lived for centuries. The tour explores this unique village, its architecture, and its historic synagogue, offering a deep dive into the cultural significance of the region.
Lunch Break
Our next stop is a beautiful forest, where we enjoy traditional Azerbaijani dishes, including Lezgian bread, followed by a refreshing tea. This peaceful break allows visitors to indulge in the local cuisine and relax before continuing the journey.
Gechresh Forest
Gechresh Forest is a breathtaking stop on the Guba-Khinalig tour. The lush, dense trees form a natural tunnel, covering the road in a canopy of greenery. With the wild river running alongside and the sight of approaching mountains, this area feels like a scene from a fairytale, offering an unforgettable experience.
Gudialchay Gorge
One of the most stunning locations in Azerbaijan is the Gudialchay Gorge. The Guba Khinalig tour includes a half-hour walk along an asphalt road that winds through towering rocks beside a roaring mountain river. The beauty of the gorge rejuvenates the soul and provides a moment of peace amid nature’s grandeur.
Khinalug
The tour’s highlight is Khinalig, Azerbaijan's highest settlement at 2500 meters. Nestled in the Greater Caucasus, this 4000-year-old village is home to a people who speak a unique language. Visitors explore Khinalig’s steep, narrow streets and hear the legends of its ancient origins. The village, with its rich history and stunning location, leaves a lasting impression. After visiting Khinalig, the tour group returns to Baku, filled with unforgettable memories.
