Key facts on the topic

  • Region of Armenia
  • On the Akhuryan: fertile soils and a continental climate

Landscape, monasteries and tuff stone

Around Gyumri, hiking trails with fortress ruins, lakes and meadows are among the region's scenic experiences. Harichavank and Marmashen are among the historic cultural highlights in Shirak and can be combined with days spent exploring the landscape as regional excursion destinations.

Artik also broadens the regional perspective: the town is associated with tuff stone mines and the Armenian tuff stone tradition. Shirak therefore offers a variety of reasons for planning a trip that combines landscape, architecture and regional culture.

Which location suits your travel itinerary?

As regional destinations, you can include Gyumri and Mayisyan in your further search.

Gyumri is considered the centre of Shirak and can serve as a regional point of orientation. Anyone wishing to combine cultural destinations and excursions can consider Gyumri as a central base. A smaller location is more suitable when the immediate surroundings and the planned nature destinations are the main focus.

Choose accommodation based on the experiences

Accommodation should be selected based on the planned Shirak experiences: cultural destinations such as Harichavank and Marmashen favour regionally focused day planning, while hiking and landscape days around Gyumri create a different focus for excursions.

A holiday apartment or holiday house can be suitable for a trip with several independently planned regional excursions; a hotel is another option provided for by the search request.
