Description
Mountains are probably one of the first things that come to your mind when you want to imagine Armenia. And this is no coincidence, because over 90% of the country’s territory is located at an altitude of more than 1000 m. And we invite you to the most interesting trip of the summer – a photo tour of Mountainous Armenia. We will climb the highest points and take photos of the most beautiful mountain landscapes in Armenia.
Where we will visit: Mount Aragats – the highest mountain in Armenia (4095 m), Geghama Mountains, the highest peak of which is the handsome Azhdahak (3597 m), Mount Armagan (2829 m).
You have never seen such Armenia!
