Morning light slices the ridgelines as a private minivan climbs from Quba toward Khinalig, the high-mountain village that perches where alpine air thins and stone houses press close to the wind. Travelers step out into cold, bright silence; edges of the Caucasus lay open in layered ridges while shepherd dogs watch from terraces carved into steep slopes.

There are basic restaurants at some stops such as Mestergah waterfall and in Quba; bring small change for purchases and expect limited facilities in remote areas.
