Mount Ararat

Mount Ararat – the beginning of your peaks

Do you love mountains and can’t live without them? Or perhaps you’re seeking new challenges and want to test yourself in a completely different environment? Or maybe you dream of escaping the city and taking a delightful stroll in the wilderness with great company?

A trip to Mount Ararat, the highest mountain in Turkey (5137 meters), is a perfect choice for you. It’s a bit exotic and not frequented by tourists, featuring rugged landscapes and His Majesty Mount Ararat, providing breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding areas. Not only Turkey but also Iran, Armenia, and the entire region of Nagorno-Karabakh unfolds before your eyes! It’s important to emphasize that this mountain does not require any special technical skills or specific preparation, making it ideal for those who have never climbed high mountains (above 3,000 meters) and for travelers who are just starting their mountain exploration. Additionally, you can climb comfortably and enjoy the process without much weight on your shoulders – all the necessary gear and personal items will be brought to the camps. Now is the best time to test yourself because THERE’S NOTHING BETTER BEYOND MOUNTAINS THAN MOUNTAINS THEMSELVES!
