Tufandag Peak is the third-highest summit of the Greater Caucasus range, standing at an elevation of 4,191 meters. Located at the watershed of the Guba, Gusar, and Gabala regions, this magnificent mountain is an ideal choice for challenging and extreme hikes. Several tributaries of the Gudyalchay River, along with the Demiraparan and Mahmudchay Rivers, originate from the slopes of Tufandag. The eternal glaciers on the Gusar side ensure a constant water supply to the Mahmudchay River. At an altitude of 3,300 meters, the picturesque Tufangol Lake adds a unique beauty to the mountain. Named after its strong winds and blizzards, Tufandag is a true test ground for mountaineers with its harsh climate and breathtaking landscapes.
