Embark on a scenic journey to explore the historical and natural beauty of Armenia’s Aragatsotn region.

Your first stop is Saghmosavank Monastery, a 13th-century masterpiece perched dramatically on the edge of the Kasagh Gorge. This peaceful monastic complex offers stunning panoramic views of the canyon and the distant Mount Ararat, making it a perfect blend of spiritual and natural beauty.

Next, head toward the Amberd Fortress, located at an altitude of 2,300 meters on the slopes of Mount Aragats. Built in the 7th century, Amberd served as a military stronghold and royal residence. Surrounded by breathtaking alpine landscapes, it lives up to its name — “Fortress in the Clouds.” You’ll explore its ancient stone walls, nearby 11th-century church, and enjoy the quiet power of the highlands.
