Kakavaberd (Geghi) Fortress hike

Ararat

About

Kakavaberd, also known as Geghi fortress, sits on a near-inaccessible cliff top above the Azat gorge, and reaching it is a demanding full-day hike (around 8 hours round trip) through reserve land. Open May through October for 3,000 AMD, it rewards the effort with one of the most dramatically sited ruins in Armenia and sweeping gorge views.
