Overview

Trade the city for the mountains on this full day tour to Gabala, nestled in the lush foothills of the Greater Caucasus. It's one of Azerbaijan's most beautiful escapes, blending adventure and calm across green valleys, forests and alpine scenery.

Ride the Tufandag cable car for panoramic mountain views, beautiful in every season. Relax by the serene Nohur Lake, its calm waters framed by forested slopes, and follow scenic trails to the cascading Seven Beauties Waterfall. In the warmer months (roughly late May to early July), the fragrant lavender fields come into full bloom, a stunning backdrop against the Caucasus peaks.

For those wanting a little extra, Gabala's shooting club offers a safe, professionally guided experience. It all adds up to a refreshing day of nature, scenery and mountain air.

Every experience is delivered by a vetted local operator.
