Fairy Lastiver

We will start our journey through Khachakhbyur gorge to a fairy place called Lastiver in Armenia. We will see small houses constructed on the trees, a waterfall, caves, where the hermits used to live. This place looks wonderful in every season.

Zipline

At the beginning of our trail, there is a zipline and if you want you can try it before starting the hike. Zipline has 5 different lines: 135 m, 268 m, 200 m, 375 m and 750 m. The height is approximately 200-300 m above the ground. The average duration of the trip is 1.5 h.

You have no idea what zipline is? Then watch our video and find it out.

Caves of Lastiver in Armenia

To reach the caves, people once built a long ladder of logs. In form, it is more like a dam than a ladder. Therefore, people used to call it Lastiver, which means “up the dam”.

At the end, the path will lead us to a beautiful waterfall, which is formed at the lowest point of the gorge. In good weather, we will have an opportunity to swim in the cool water streams of the river Khachaghbyur.

In the evening we will return to Yerevan.
