Samur-Yalama National Park

Samur-Yalama National Park, National park in Khachmaz District, Azerbaijan.

Samur-Yalama National Park lies in Khachmaz District, its largest portion in the forested Caspian coastal zone. It holds littoral, wooded, forest-bush and arid steppe landscapes across four climate zones, with rainfall under 350 mm near the coast and over 450 mm inland. Soils range from very sandy to very clayey, and chestnut oak and Persian ironwood dominate the tree cover.

The park was established in November 2012 to protect the biological diversity and genetic resources of the region. This creation was an important step to safeguard the natural ecosystems that have long existed in this area.

The park sign at the entrance reads "Samur-Yalama Milli Parkı" above "Tel Bulacı", marking the spot where routes into the reserve begin. The name joins the Samur river with the Yalama area of Khachmaz Rayon, and some tourist routes set out from Yalama. Hunting and fishing have long shaped the district; the local hunters' society runs the Gülalan lake reserve.

The park lies in Khachmaz Rayon, and some tourist routes begin in Yalama. Rainfall differs sharply across it: under 350 mm a year in the coastal zone and over 450 mm inland, and the soil ranges from very sandy to very clayey. The sign at the entrance reads "Samur-Yalama Milli Parkı" above "Tel Bulacı".

The park is home to large predators such as lynx and brown bears living in its forested zones, though sightings remain rare for visitors. These animals have adapted to thrive across the different habitats the park provides.
