Overview

Imagine having an extreme trip in the unique nature of evergreen Tavush, spending your day in a beautiful atmosphere. Crazy emotions and unforgettable adventurous memories are guaranteed, when you are off-roading with us. The first stop will be in Kaptavank monastery. Located in a little village called Chinchin, the monastery is considered to be one of the most rarely visited places of Armenia. After exploring the unique structure, we will continue our way to the natural miracle Ghuzan Stone. A very beautiful and breathtaking view opens from there. It is a great place to take photos or just relax. Here we can have tea drinking or make a local barbecue together. After enjoying our time here, we will head to the marvelous Tavush reservoir. Surrounded by lush forests, the shallow Tavush Reservoir creates a wonderful environment to wrap up the day and enjoy an unforgettable view.

Off-road tours are a perfect way to make your day more colorful and adventurous,  explore new places, and become part of the hidden angles of nature. Don't miss the opportunity to see life from the other side.

  • Kaptavank monastery is a 12th-century monastery located in 5 kilometers from the village called Chinchin. Kaptavank used to be a monastic complex in the past, but now only one church can be seen. It was once fenced and surrounded by an old settlement and an ancient cemetery is located on the east part of the church.
  • Ghuzan Stone is a massive rock of about 200 meters, located not far from the monastery Kaptavank. It is a gorgeous place hidden in the heart of the Dilijan forests.
