Itinerary

Masazirgol
Pink Lake (Masazir) — the most unique lake in Azerbaijan, renowned for its unusual hue. There are only eight pink lakes in the world, and one of them is right here in Azerbaijan.
Note: During the winter period (from December 1 to March 31), visits to the Pink Lake Masazyr are temporarily suspended, as due to natural conditions the lake loses its characteristic pink shade.
This allows more time to be spent at other key locations of the itinerary, including the Shahdag Mountain Resort, which makes the tour even more rich and comfortable. This location is unavailable till april 30.

There’s also a holy place called “Pir Hydyr Zundzha” located here, that many respect immensely stopping at the foot of the mountain to pray and worship.
