Hiking to Chirag Gala: history, adventure and a social message

In this vlog, we share our hike to Chirag Gala and the purpose behind this journey. Chirag Gala is an ancient fortress dating back to the 5th–6th centuries and is considered one of Azerbaijan’s important historical monuments. Located about 150 km from Baku, it sits on a high mountainous area, making it difficult to reach. The road is tough but exciting. Large rocks, steep slopes, and a long hike turn this trip into a real adventure. This video is not just a journey. It’s also about discovering history and feeling the deeper social message behind our trip. Sometimes, you don’t find yourself only at the top — but along the difficult path to it.
