Baku: Gobustan, Ateshgah, and Burning Mountain Day Trip

Discover the ancient rock carvings and mud volcanoes of Gobustan National Park on a day trip from Baku. Visit the Fire Temple of Baku and see the flames flicker at Yanar Dag.
Discover the Gobustan National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the Ateshgah Fire Temple on a full-day tour from Baku. See thousands of prehistoric rock engravings, a "singing stone," and mud volcanoes. Visit the former monastery and place of Hindu, Sikh, and Zoroastrian worship.

Start your tour with a pickup from your hotel in Baku and head to the Gobustan National Park, about 67 miles (120 kilometers) south of Baku, along the coast of the Caspian Sea. Explore the park, officially known as the Gobustan Rock Art Cultural Landscape, and see thousands of prehistoric rock engravings dating back 5,000–20,000 years.

In addition to the carvings, the park houses a rare "singing stone," a large collection of mud volcanoes, and a complex of public mud baths. Next, head to the Ateshgah Fire Temple, a former monastery and place of Hindu, Sikh, and Zoroastrian worship built on one of Azerbaijan's eternal flames, natural gas vents used for fire rituals.

While the eternal flame has snuffed out, replaced by gas pipes, the temple complex is an architectural reserve—and the fire burns on occasion. Continue to the Yanar Dag, or "Burning Mountain," a natural gas fire which blazes continuously on a hillside on the Absheron Peninsula.

See the flames flicker as they emerge from the rugged earth at Yanar Dag inside this historical, cultural, and natural reserve north of Baku. After your tour, return to your hotel in Baku.
