Lake Maralgol, Ganja-Gazakh Region, Azerbaijan


5.0 (13 reviews) Spent Ranking #6 in Ganja Bodies of Water • Nature & Wildlife Areas

Beautiful!!!!

We took a taxi from Ganga to the lakes Goygol and Maralgol. There is a small entrance fee at the entrance of the reserve, and after a short drive you first arrive at lake Goygol. From there you have to take a Mashrutka to go up to lake Maralgol (1 manat each way), and it is totally worth it. It takes about 10-15min from lake Goygol to reach Maralgol. From the drop off point you need to climb close to 300 stairs (or ride a horse). Unlike lake Goygol, you can walk a fair bit around the lake, even dip your feet into the cool water. Great views over the high mountains behind. Totally recommend it, it was incredibly beautiful.

    Hidden Gem
    Lake Maragol is a short drive north from Goygol and requires quite a bit of walking, so make sure you have the right gear on. The walk up is worth the effort with surreal views of the lake overlooked by the snowy top mountains.

    Better than Goygol
    Bit of a hike to get here. It was a hot day and the trek was nothing less than a challenge. It was worth it though since this is prettier than goygol and there was plenty of shade for one to sit and relax.
