Hirkan National Park

Lankaran and Astara districts

A protected forest landscape in the Talish foothills, known for its distinctive subtropical woodland.

Look at the forest as a living habitat rather than a collection of individual photo stops. Choose an authorised route and ask about suitable seasonal conditions; keep noise low and leave plants and wildlife undisturbed.

Ask the park administration about permitted entrances, trails, tickets and guide requirements. Protected status does not mean unrestricted access to every part of the area.
