Tours
Nalbandyan 5, Yerevan, Armenia
Mountaineering tours are typical of Armenia, because about 70 percent of the territory of historical Armenia and the current Republic of Armenia are mountains. Some of them are former volcanoes whose craters have turned into alpine lakes, there are mountains covered with huge rocks, other mountains are covered with dense forest. or bushes, there are also mountains with grassy alpine meadows. If you like to conquer the heights lasting a few hours or a full day, if you like walks in the fresh, life-giving air, then the Mountaineering Tour is just for you. In turn, hiking tours are divided into subtypes, which are religious hiking tours, during which you will climb mountains or heights at the highest point of which there is a shrine, chapel or church. In the case of the other main option, we will climb mountains whose peaks offer a picturesque view of the Armenian highlands or the Biblical Mount Ararat. especially when we go to such a height where there are beautiful waterfalls or other beautiful natural images. So come to the Armenian Highlands
