Discover the magic of Armenian winter with a private tour to Tsaghkadzor Ski Resort — the country’s top destination for skiing, snowboarding, and winter fun. Just an hour’s drive from Yerevan, Tsaghkadzor combines stunning mountain scenery with a rich cultural and historical background.
Nestled among pine forests, the town isn’t only for sports lovers — it also hosts winter festivals, concerts, and national celebrations. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced skier, the slopes of Mount Teghenis offer great runs for every level. New to skiing? Skilled instructors are ready to help, with private lessons available from age 4 and up.
Your winter journey begins with a visit to Kecharis Monastery, one of the most significant medieval monuments in Armenia. Founded in the 11th century, the monastery received its final architectural form during the reign of the Proshyan family in the 13th century. Surrounded by snowy slopes and pine forests, this peaceful complex creates a beautiful harmony of spirituality and mountain nature.
For those interested in Armenian history and culture, you can add a visit to the Orbeli Brothers Museum for an additional charge and time. This small but fascinating museum is dedicated to the famous Armenian scientists — the Orbeli brothers — and showcases their remarkable contribution to science and culture.
(This visit is optional and can be added or skipped upon request.)
After exploring the town’s cultural landmarks, it’s time for the fun part — skiing and snowboarding on the slopes of Mount Teghenis. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced skier, you’ll find tracks suited for all levels. Professional instructors are always available, and private lessons can be booked in advance.

Your private driver meets you at your hotel in Yerevan. The drive to Tsaghkadzor takes approximately one hour through scenic Armenian countryside. Perfect time to plan your day on the slopes with your guide.
Arrive at Armenia's premier ski destination, set on the slopes of Mount Teghenis at 1,750m above sea level. The resort offers 27 km of slopes across 4 stages reaching up to 2,819m - just 10 meters below the highest station of Courchevel in France.
Beginners can rent equipment and take lessons with professional instructors on the lower slopes. Experienced skiers and snowboarders can take all four lifts to the summit for longer runs with panoramic views of Lake Sevan and Mount Ararat.
Those who prefer not to ski can ride the cable car to the top for the views — one of the most spectacular winter panoramas in the South Caucasus.
A short walk from the resort to the beautiful 11th-century Kecharis Monastery, whose stone churches sit quietly among snow-covered pine trees. A calm contrast to the energy of the slopes.
Optional lunch at one of the resort's mountain restaurants with warm Armenian food and mountain views. Can be added in Extras when booking.
