Description

This trail whisks down from the Aragats Research Station for about 900 meters towards the Amberd medieval fortress. The doubletrack offers broad picturesque views of the mountain surroundings along a steady (sometimes steeper) descent. The very short Amberd Fortress Connector takes riders to the parking area and a closer look. From there, the doubletrack turns to the west before before sweeping down to the Kasagh River. On the other side, it continues through the gorge along a sandy/gravel road to end on the outskirts of Orgov Village, in Aragatsotn province.
