The description of the route:
The tour route passes through the territory of Khosrov Preserve, one of the most picturesque and charming places of Armenia. Khosrov Forest was created in the 4th century A.D. by Armenian King Khosrov Kotak. The forest was planted in the place of an arid land and numerous game was released, making the forest the favorite hunting grounds for the Armenian nobility. Even now the Preserve boasts very lush flora, including more than 1800 species of plants, 156 of which are considered rare, endangered or disappearing. The fauna of the reserve is likewise thriving. In the reserve, one can find amphibians, 7 types of fish, and over 30 varieties of reptiles such as the Levantine Viper, Montpellier snake, dotted and collared dwarf snakes, the Pleskes racerunner, and various lizards. The Preserve also has numerous gorges, mountain lakes, forested areas and caves. You will also visit the cave Monastery Geghard, meaning "the Monastery of the Spear", which originates from the spear which had wounded Jesus during his crucifixion, allegedly brought to Armenia by Apostle Thaddeus, and stored amongst many other relics. Now it is displayed in the Echmiadzin treasury. Havuts Tar and St. Stepanos Church, Kakavaberd Fortress and the ancient Garni Pagan Temple will offer you spectacular experience and memories.
For over 2000 years this area has been the favorite resting place of the Armenian royalty and nobility.
