The Candy Cane Mountains are shale mountains in the Khizi and Siyazan districts of Azerbaijan, part of the Greater Caucasus mountain range. The 'Candy Cane Mountains' were originally dubbed so by travel author Mark Elliott in his guidebook 'Azerbaijan with Excursions to Georgia'. The mountains' colors are produced by groundwater that alters the oxidation state of the iron compounds in the earth.

Besh Barmag Mountain (Beşbarmaq Dağı) — one of Azerbaijan’s most iconic natural landmarks — rises dramatically near the Caspian Sea, about 90 km north of Baku. Meaning “Five Fingers” in Azerbaijani, its unique shape makes it a striking sight along the highway to Quba. A sacred pilgrimage site for centuries, visitors climb the stone steps to the Khitir Baba shrine, tie colorful ribbons for good luck, and enjoy panoramic views of the sea and steppe. It’s easily reachable by car and perfect for a short scenic stop or a light hike with spiritual atmosphere.
