Armenia is getting popular not only as a tourism destination during the summer season but also in winter. MIR TV station has prepared a reportage about Armenia’s Tsakhkadzor resort town where visitors hold new levels of adrenaline and extreme skiing experience.
 
The reporter reminds that Tsakhkadzor is just 60km far from capital Yerevan and the resort’s lift network rises to the top of the Teghenis mountain at over 2800 metres, while the terrain up here is steep, offering some seriously challenging skiing. 

As the source says, the resort offers skiing and snowboarding, usually at prices well below those in Western Europe.

The skiing season that usually lasts until the end of February in Tsakhkadzor, offers options also for beginners and children at specially designed terrains, the source said.
