Weather and packing
Late spring (May to June) and early autumn (September to October) are ideal, with mild temperatures and clear views of Mount Ararat. Summers in Yerevan are hot and dry, while winters are cold and snowy in the mountains.
Comfortable walking shoes, layers for cooler mountain weather, sunscreen and a scarf or long clothing for visiting churches. In winter, bring warm clothing for trips to Tatev, Sevan and Aragats.
Yes. Most day tours run all year. Some mountain roads, such as the road to Lake Kari on Mount Aragats, close in winter, and we adjust routes when needed.
