The Hiking Trail From Gosh Village to Gosh Lake is Ready for Hikers

Updated: Oct 25, 2017




The northeastern Armenian province of Tavush is home to some of the largest forested areas in the Armenian Highland. This five-day section of the Transcaucasian Trail will take you on a journey through the very best the region has to offer, focused around the town of Dilijan and the surrounding mountains of Dilijan National Park.





As well as taking in the stunning limestone escarpments and broadleaf forests of the region, your hike will also pass close to some of the region’s most iconic historical sites, including the early Christian monasteries of Haghartsin and Goshavank, which date back to the 10th century, as well as several lesser-known natural and cultural sites.


Self-sufficient hikers will find plentiful wild-camping opportunities along the route, giving you the ability to modify the itinerary to suit your preferred schedule and level of challenge. For those wishing to spend their nights indoors, guesthouse accommodation is available at all but one of the suggested overnight stops (Haghartsin Monastery). However, the monastery is within easy reach by taxi of guesthouses in Dilijan.

The trail can be hiked in either direction.

The Trails For Change NGO Crew worked closley with the TCT Crew to desing and build this segment of trail.


This trail is partially marked on sections where existing trail infrastructure has been used. We expect to have the remainder of the trail signs complete this Fall.
