Horseback Riding Around Tsovakar Mountain

About this activity

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.
