Mount Artanish is an ideal option for a winter ascent in Armenia, as it has a low altitude and beautiful landscapes. The summit of the mountain is the only place from where you can clearly see the confluence of Greater and Lesser Sevan.

We start the ascent near the Shoghakat village, from an altitude of 1920 m above sea level. The relative altitude is 540 m.
After enjoying the beautiful views and having a little rest, we will descend to Artanish peninsula and continue our hike along the shore of the Lake Sevan.
The Annual Tradition
Every winter, the team of Armenian Geographic climbs Mount Artanish, then descends to the lake and prepares for a refreshing swim in the icy-cold waters of Sevan.
So if you are crazy enough, just go ahead and join us!
