largest city in the Debed Canyon of Lori, an area rich with historical monuments and natural beauty, and your best bet for refueling, getting supplies or finding other things you'd expect in a town. The town itself has little to offer of historic value, save for the beautiful old foot bridge, since it was built as a mining town, a fact which you won't be able to miss as you go past the massive mining works. The mine once wreaked massive environmental damage, which stopped for a while with the collapse of the USSR, but now it has restarted, albeit on a much smaller scale. You can drive to the Sarahart suburb, which is on top of the canyon cliffs, or you can walk up the ancient foot path which is past the bridge. The funniest, and perhaps most dangerous option though is the cable car, which takes the miners to and from work. Sarahart is adjacent to Sanahin Village, with the famous monastery, and the museum to the Migoyan brothers, with their extraordinary accomplishments of worldwide significance. </p><p>Although accommodation options are somewhat limited, making the decision to stay a few nights in the area will allow you to much better appreciate and explore what Armenia has to offer, without sitting in a car all day back and forth from <a href="/wiki/Yerevan" title="Yerevan">Yerevan</a>. </p><p>Alaverdi is surrounded by the following important suburbs and villages, which will also be considered in this article: <span class="vcard"><span class="noprint listing-coordinates" style="display:none"><span class="geo"><abbr class="latitude">41.091974</abbr><abbr

However, both originate from pretty much from the same time. Sanahin has a round library building that the groundskeeper can show you, with exquisite carvings. You can take a cable car from the main highway up to Sanahin village, and walk to the monastery (20 min) if you prefer.

The shortest trail with least distance on paved roads is 9 km and takes about 2-3 hr. It takes you through the steep gorges, a small mountain river and the village Akner. If you follow the official path, be careful going down to the mountain river; one of the water pipes has a leak and the steep incline is very slippery. Also, just close to Haghpat when climbing into the valley, there are two options. One leads you down far to the bottom where the road and trail intersect. Another one is slightly longer but remains on similar altitude avoiding the steep climb going around'ish the gorge south of it.</bdi><span class="listing-metadata">&#32;(<span class="listing-metadata-items"><bdi class="listing-lastedit">updated Dec 2019</bdi></span>)</span></bdi></li></ul> <ul><li><bdi class="vcard"> <span id="Horse_riding_and_hiking_with_local_guide_Saro_Ohanyan" class="fn org listing-name" style="font-weight:bold;">Horse riding and hiking with local guide Saro Ohanyan</span>,&#32;<abbr title="phone" style="text-decoration:none">☏</abbr> <bdi class="tel listing-phone"><span class="plainlinks nourlexpansion"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="tel:+37443807092">+ 374 43 807092</a></span></bdi>,&#32;<span class="email listing-email"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="mailto:saro.ohanyan@yahoo.com">saro.ohanyan@yahoo.com</a></span>.&#32;<bdi class="note listing-content">For several years already Saro has been organizing hiking and horse-riding tours in the most beautiful corners of Lori.
