About
Ag-Gel National Park (Azerbaijani: Ağ göl Milli Parkı) — is a national park of Azerbaijan. It was established in an area in Ağcabədi Rayon and Beyləqan Rayon administrative districts on July 5, 2003, on the basis of the former "Ag-Gol State Reserve" and "Ag-Gol State Game Reserve" which it superseded, on a surface area of 17,924 hectares (179.24 km2).
A big part of the national park is the Lake Ağgöl, an internationally recognized area of global importance which was declared an Important Bird Area (IBA) when it was placed in the list of Ramsar wetlands of international importance in 2001.
