Great double track in the countryside, among basaltic columns and a great canyon in a village. Avoid if it's the season of crop burning. Better enjoyed with big volume tires and a lot of spare tires plugs or tubes patches, some sections are ruff. I recommend taking this route early in the morning or late afternoon, 'cause there is no shade anywhere.

Cozy place, perfect cherries!

The geological formation is incredible. The path is next to the basalt wall, it will be safe until a rock falls on someone's head. Today, entry was 300 drams. The structure they built for pedestrians is good, I believe it is possible to travel the route with a wheelchair too. I entered from the side that comes from the valley, going down the street next to the entrance to the Temple of the Sun (separate entrance). There is another entrance for those coming by car, and this one has a slightly steep slope. I didn't like the number of cars passing among the pedestrians, it seems to me that it will turn into a place for mass tourism.

At the end of September, just under -2 degrees at night with great conditions and a magnificent view

The perfect place in late September. After sunset, Mount Aragats, Armenia's highest mountain, appears on the horizon

The monument is made up of huge symmetrical hexagonal and pentagonal basalt columns (almost 50 meters high), which appear to be handcrafted due to their extraordinary symmetry. These wonderful rocks were formed under high pressure conditions due to the cooling and crystallization of volcanic lava. These stones suspended against gravity resemble an organ, which explains why it is also called the “Basalt Organ”. The soundtrack is provided by the river that flows through the gorge and fills the splendor of the stone with the sound of water.
