    Hunters in the middle of the national park, at the view of park ranger/guards, while I was finaly getting some photos of nice birds, some hunter shoot at them, killed one and made the others fly away. Hunting was suposedly forbidden in the national park, seems like they don't even protect that park..... For the rest, open only 10-16, terrible road to access, they ask 2 AZN as entrance fee and weirdly they take the infos of your passport..... and about the park, not much to see, especially in these conditions (hunters).....

    If you aren't a passionate bird lover. there is nothing special here to see except the magnificent empty landscape. if you are lucky, you can see some turtles and (sea) snakes

    The Absheron State Nature Preserve was created in July 1969 in order to protect gazelles, Caspian seals and water birds that inhabit the territory. The climate of the area is semi-arid, specific to semi-desert and dry steppe. Types and phytomass of flora is poor here, plants are changed respective of water and saltiness regime of area. Sea coastal sand plants (42,6%), meadows with jigilgamish and paz grass (13,2 %), one-year saline grasses (5,2 %) etc. are spread. Ephemeras also develop well in early spring.

    nice view to the sea. On the otherside if you do not come at the right time you will see only birds. The road to get there is not suited for normal cars but for bikes, walking or motorbikes it is ok. You can get inside of the National Park with your car.

    Generally interesting place to be and see different landscape and fauna. Entrance fee is 2 AZN per person. Vehicle is permitted, but roads are more suitable for SUVs. Beware of snakes there!

    Wir waren im August dort. Leider haben wir kaum Tiere gesehen. Aber der Meerausblick wär super und wir waren sogar schwimmen obwohl es eigentlich nicht gestattet ist. Trotzdem sieht man den einen oder anderen dort dies tun

    (Translated by Google) Here is the very last point in the site where you can write a question that you would like to come up with. Ilan, suit, fox, turtle and so on. There are animals. The Sahdili Island is also here. There are many snakes in summer. It is better to come when the weather is cold. (Original) Bura gəlmək istəyən sual yaza bilər cvb verəcəm.Xeritede ən uc nöqtə burda yerləşir.Ilan, suiti, tülkü, tısbağa və s. Heyvanlar var.Sahdili adası da burda yerləşir.Yayda ilan çox olur.Hava soyug olanda gəlmək daha yaxşı olar.

    (Translated by Google) For those who don't like the semi-desert steppe landscape, it may seem like an uninteresting place. But the fauna is very rich. At the same time, as one of the most remote points in Azerbaijan, it is interesting because of the beak of the symbolic "Eagle" and is unique in terms of feeling what the peninsula, which is surrounded by water on three sides, really looks like. (Original) Yarımsəhra çöl landşaftını sevməyənlər üçün maraqsız bir yer kimi görünə bilər. Lakin faunası çox zəngindir. Eyni zamanda Azərbaycanın ən ucqar nöktələrindən biri kimi, rəmzi "Qartalın" dimdiyi olmasına görə maraqlı və əsl üç tərəfdən su ilə əhatə olunan yarımadanın həqiqətən necə olmasını hiss etmək baxımından bənzəri olmayan bir yerdir.

    (Translated by Google) It's actually a beautiful wonder of nature but nobody cared. The roads are trending on arrival and the asphalt is very poor entrance so go to the end with very cheap cars and be able to go to the end of the park on foot. No quiet and relaxing place for eating, drinking, grocery etc. places. (Original) Aslında güzel bir doğa harikası ama bakımsız kimse ilgilenmemiş. Yollar geliş gidişli ve asfalt çok kötü giriş çok ucuz araba ile sonuna kadar gidip parkın ucuna yürüyerek gitmek mümkün. Içerde yeme içme market vb.yerler yok sessiz ve dinlendirici bir yer.

👍 The road to this museum has been paved since the last time I was there on Feb 2023. So you can in fact drive here or hire a taxi to get here all the way now. There is no need to change taxi at the town of GOBUSTAN or get a jeep or 4wd according to a lot of blogs.
