Climbing Mount Aragats - One Day Tour in Armenia

Mount Aragats is located in the central part of Armenia, on the border of Aragatsotn and Shirak marzes. Aragats was one of the largest volcanoes in the world in the past. It has a huge crater 400 m deep and 3 km in diameter, the remnants of the ruined walls of which are the four peaks of the mountain. The crater is open from the south-east and is connected to the surroundings. The Qataris are arranged in a semicircle and form an arc of 270 degrees. The highest is the northern ridge - 4090 m. Then come the west - 3995 meters, the east - 3908 meters, the south - 3887 meters. The crater is a large catchment area. The Gegharot River, a tributary of the Kasakh, begins here. Aragats is the highest point of present-day Armenia. We will climb the Southern peak.
