Candy Cane Mountains

The Candy Cane Mountains () are shale mountains in the Khizi and Siyazan districts of Azerbaijan, part of the Greater Caucasus mountain range. The Candy Cane Mountains were originally dubbed so by travel writer Mark Elliott in his guidebook 'Azerbaijan with Excursions to Georgia'. The mountains' colours are produced by groundwater that have altered the oxidation state of the iron compounds in the earth. 
The Candy Cane Mountains contain numerous belemnites from the Cretaceous period.
