Join us on a horseback riding excursion known as the "Historical Trail Ride”. This route travels between the mediaeval monasteries of Odzun, Horomayr, and Ardvi. If you have never ridden before, you will receive a 30-minute horseback riding lesson before commencing the tour. This will be followed by a trip through beginner-friendly trail rides that will teach you how to walk and trot. If you are a more experienced rider, you may enjoy the thrill of more advanced trail rides whilst you soak in the breathtaking landscapes.

The tour offers some of the best views of Tsovaqar (seastone) Mountain, various species of birds, and quite trail rides through dense forests within 1.5 hour. The route follows rarely used wooded mountain paths, that provide a broad range of possibilities for exploring the wilderness. The area is well-known for a number of wild animals; like brown bear, Caucasian Red Deer, grey wolfs, foxes, martens. Due to the abundance of nestling locations, about 200 species of birds appear in the area during the migration. Most common species are Griffon Vulture, Black Crow, Common Blackbird and many others. Wildflowers dot the area, surrounded by the snow-capped Gugarats Range.
