Trek to Mount Aragats Volcanic from Yerevan

You will be picked up from your hotel in Yerevan where you will be transferred to the start of the trek. The people you are most likely to encounter while at Aragats are Yezidi nomads living a nomadic life in tents, isolated from the rest of the society and preserving their way of life, traditional norms of behavior and unique religion. Their main occupation is sheep breeding and producing the most ecologically pure milk on the planet, from which Yezidi make cheese, butter, matsun and yogurt. Hiking at Aragats is especially spectacular in spring when the entire mountain is literally covered with poppies and other mountain flowers. The easiest peak of Aragats is the southern peak.

Starting from Kari Lich (Stone Lake), you and your guide will take a 3 hour hike to the summit on a steady slope (3,879m).
