The northern peak of Mount Aragats is in the Aragatsotn region of Armenia. It is the first highest mountain in Armenia (4090 m). The mountain has a huge crater 400 m deep, 3 km in diameter, the remains of the destroyed walls of which form the four peaks of the mountain. The crater is open from the southeast and is connected to the surrounding area. The nearest settlement is Gehadzor, where the ski trail begins. After an early breakfast, you can leave. The trip to North Peak usually takes 8-10 hours (up and down together). You take the car (jeep) from the village and then begin the ski trail, expecting an easy, long landing, soft snow and beautiful panoramas.
Mount Aragats
Mount Aragats is considered the highest point of the Republic of Armenia - 4090 m. It is a mass isolated from its surroundings, with a circumference of about 200 km. Together with its steep slopes it covers an area of about 4000 km. Aragats was once one of the largest volcanoes in the world. It has a huge crater 400 m deep, 3 km in diameter and four peaks.
About Animals
On the slopes of Mount Aragats animals enjoy their winter holidays underground under a thick layer of snow. When crossing almost all the ski slopes in Armenia you can more often see the tracks of animals than animals themselves. However, it is not impossible to encounter wolves, foxes, wild rabbits, and dogs in the countryside. Birds wintering in Armenia are also rare.
About Safety
Ucom and Viva Cell-Mts telephone service is almost always available from the village of Geghadzor to the northern summit of Mount Aragats. There is a 911 emergency service in Armenia in case of an accident.
