The Ptoject “Ours”<\/h4>\n

The idea of climbing the highest summits of all mountain ranges of Armenia appeared to Armenian Geographic project in 2003. The ascents were available for everyone who was interested in mountaineering and wanted to participate.<\/span><\/p>\n

The project gave an opportunity to discover new heights, to get acquainted with nature, nearby villages, people living there and also recognize the cultural and historical monuments. During the project we\u2019ve climbed many mountains and 64 peaks of 46 mountain ranges found their place in our book. If you want to climb any of these mountains or just have the book “Mountains of Armenia” in your library, please contact us<\/a><\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n
