Tucked in dense ancient forest on the left bank of the Vandam River, at 1,300 m above sea level, Soyuqbulaq is one of the Caucasus's best-kept secrets — a three-tier waterfall of extraordinary character, just 4.5 km from Vandam village. The trail climbs from 1,000 m through towering forest as the sound of rushing water builds with every step. The first tier greets you gently at 3 m, the second commands attention at 10 m, and the third — the grand finale — drops a thundering 30 m into a rocky basin. Along the approach, sweeping panoramas of Vandamərə and the Greater Caucasus unfold beside you, making the walk itself as rewarding as the destination. Soyuqbulaq is not just a waterfall; it is a journey through three moods of the same mountain stream, each tier its own unforgettable moment. Start: 1,000 m | Highest point: 1,300 m | Distance: 9 km | Duration: 3–4 hours | Difficulty: Moderate

Quzğunqaya is part of the mountain whose silhouette Gabala locals know as the Sleeping Beauty — a ridge that dominates the skyline and calls to every hiker who looks up from the valley. The trail climbs from ancient hawthorn forests through lush alpine meadows where nomadic shepherds still graze their flocks in summer, a scene unchanged for centuries. As you gain height, the Caucasus opens up around you: ridge upon ridge, forested valleys, and the river winding far below. At the summit (2,481 m), the view sweeps across to Qəmərvan village and the deep river gorges — one of the most dramatic panoramas in the Greater Caucasus. This is a technically demanding ascent with significant elevation gain, rewarding those who reach the top with an experience few visitors ever see. Start: 1,450 m | Highest point: 2,481 m | Distance: 7 km | Duration: 4–5 hours | Difficulty: Challenging
