Hiking Trip in the South - Day 2
Day 2 - Drive from Yerevan to the South. Visit to Tatev Monastery
In the morning, we depart from Yerevan and head towards Kapan, traveling through the scenic landscapes of southern Armenia. Along the way, we stop at the historic Tatev Monastery, one of Armenia’s most iconic spiritual and cultural sites, perched dramatically on a cliffside. To reach the monastery, we take the "Wings of Tatev" cable car, the world's longest reversible aerial tramway, offering breathtaking views of the Vorotan Gorge. During our visit, we will learn about the monastery’s rich history, its significance as a medieval center of learning, and gain insights into the cultural and natural heritage of the Syunik region. After visiting the monastery, we continue our drive to Kapan, where we will settle in for three nights.
