We offer you a mountain cycling tour through the forests and mountains of the most colorful place in Armenia. The road passes through dense forests, mountains and cultural monuments of Dilijan National Park. The area is perfect for cycling, as there are hiking trails and dirt roads in forests. Therefore, cycling here will not be difficult for a person even with minimal experience.
Route description
In the morning we will leave Yerevan and head towards Dilijan. We will go to the Semyonovka village. The village is located on the top of the mountain, from where you can see beautiful Lake Sevan from an unusual angle. Here we will sit on our bicycles and start our mountain cycling tour. Through the forest paths we will reach the mountain plateau, where we will find the ruins of the abandoned village Tchermakavan and the church “Spitak eghtsi”. Some parts of the road to this place will be uphill, but after that only downhill awaits us, so we will enjoy the ride and catch adrenaline to the fullest.
The next attraction will be the forest lake Gosh. This lake has different unique colors at every time of the year and it always looks like in a fairy tale. From here we will ride to the Gosh village, have a rest, drink tea or coffee, load our bicycles into the car and head to Dilijan.
If desired, the group can stay here for dinner. In Dilijan there are many authentic restaurants. If there is time, we can walk around the city, learn its history. In the end we will return to Yerevan.
