Armenia for the active and adventurous. Accompanied by adventure guides, explore caves and remote wilderness, experience culture and traditions of this little-known country off the beaten path.

Walking conditions
Trails are almost always good though we occasionally come across rough sections in mountains and valleys. Climbing to mountain peaks is optional. Technical experience is not a must. Normally we will walk between 4 to 6 hours per day. Walking during the first day of the hike should provide adequate acclimatization for higher altitudes.

Grading A (moderate).
Involves some longer walks generally at law altitudes below 2,500 m. The only exception is the Southern summit of Mount Aragats (3,878m). The tour is designed within the capabilities of those with normal physical fitness, but previous walking experience would be beneficial.

Accommodation
We choose facilities that combine high level of comfort and service with unique design and appreciation of the natural beauty of a region. The emphasis is on location, practicality and reasonable degree of comfort. Furthermore, our close relationship with leading hotels allows us to offer you special rates and upgrades.

Hotel/Guesthouse
– Accommodation is generally in same sex twin rooms. If you are sharing with another single no supplement is necessary. Our costs are generally based on 3 or 4 star properties. If you want higher-class accommodation you can request an upgrade at the time of booking.

Single Supplement
– Should you want more privacy during your trip, you can upgrade by the requesting your own room, often at a little extra cost.

Camping
– In some regions we provide accommodation at mountain camps or forest cabins at well-appointed locations, usually at the bank of a river or lake. Full facilities: fresh water supply, shower, toilets, sleeping & dining tents, camping stools and tables are provided.
