In this study, we focused on the role of mountain culture in tourism development using the case of Azerbaijan. We found that advances in information technology have led to innovations in the tourism sector. Faster dissemination of information and more accessible advertising on social media have contributed to the growth of tourism. We also identified opportunities for research and development in the field of mountain culture to further promote Azerbaijani tourism. In particular, we assessed the potential of mountain culture in the Shahdag winter tourism development model in northern Azerbaijan.
