Guided hikes, forest trails and local experiences in the green heart of Armenia.
EXPLORE THE TOURSLeave the cafés and old streets behind and another Dilijan begins: forest paths, mountain slopes, quiet lakes, viewpoints and places you would never notice from a car.
A short and comfortable first hiking experience through the Drunken Forest, with panoramic views of Dilijan and the mirrored Camera Obscura. Trekking poles and instruction are included.
Walk out of Dilijan, cross forest trails and finish at Lake Parz. Hiking poles, a snack and the transfer back are included.
A historical walk through Dilijan's forests, mountain streams and traces of ancient settlements. Visit two medieval monasteries hidden in the landscape.
From Lake Parz we hike 7 km along mountain and forest trails to Gosh. Explore medieval Goshavank, then enjoy a homemade Armenian lunch at Mama Manush’s home. Transfers are included.
Not a bus excursion. Not a checklist of sights. A day spent inside the landscape.
The Transcaucasian Trail began as an ambitious idea: to connect the landscapes of the South Caucasus through a long-distance hiking route.
In 2017, Dilijan National Park became the setting for the first large-scale trail-building project in Armenia. Volunteers and trail builders worked here to create an 85 km multi-day route through the forests and mountains around Dilijan.
Today, these trails are part of the modern hiking history of the region — and some of the landscapes we walk through on our tours belong to that same wider trail culture.
Dilijan Tour is not an organiser or official representative of the Transcaucasian Trail Association.
No buses and no crowds. The experience stays personal.
The equipment you need for the route is already provided.
We'll stop somewhere beautiful, rest and have a simple snack.
Finish the route and return to Dilijan comfortably.
Hiking poles are provided on our walks. Before we start, we show you how to adjust them to your height and how to use them on climbs and descents.
Poles add extra points of support, help with balance on uneven trails and engage your arms, shoulders and core. Part of the effort is shared with the upper body, which can make a long walk more comfortable for your legs.
A simple guide: if you can comfortably walk up to the 6th floor without needing a long stop, the level will probably suit you. We do not hike for speed and we take breaks along the way.
Children are welcome from age 12 if they are used to longer walks.
Not for most routes. Each tour clearly states its distance, duration and difficulty.
