Monday this week was a local holiday, so we travelled to the Candy Cane Mountains which are about 1 1/2 hours from Baku. Travelling north towards Quba. On the way you pass Sumqayit which is described as an ideal location for a beach resort until the Soviets planners made it home to Azerbaijan's heavy industry (chemical factories). It once held the world record for infant mortality.
The weather was warm & sunny. They are called candy cane due to the coloured banding of the rocks. We enjoyed a picnic - before we saw the wolf !
