One of the greatest impressions in Armenia came from visiting this fortress. Yes, this is not an Amberd in architecture, almost nothing remains of this fortress, but the views, the air, as well as the ascent itself on foot left an unforgettable impression. We walked an hour and a half to the fortress. The ascents may seem steep for unprepared tourists, but they are quite passable, because you are not walking along the path, but along the road. We had a 4-year-old child with us, part of the way passed by herself, part on her shoulders.
Sports shoes, caps, water, sunscreen are required if in summer. There's nothing to do in the rain, that's for sure. At the exit from the road towards the fortress, there are locals on SUVs and can take them to the fortress and back. In rubles, a little more than 2 thousand. But if by car, then a huge part of the impressions will pass you by.

We made the ascent on foot (~ 45 minutes), which we never regretted. Cows graze in the vicinity of the fortress. In my opinion, the ascent is not difficult. Of course, it is better to go in good weather, because after the rain it can be slippery. The fortress itself is certainly impressive in size and that it was built in such an inaccessible place.

You can get there on foot or by SUV. There were cars at the foot that could take you to the fortress for a fee.
A wall and a couple of rooms remained from the fortress itself. More emotion is caused by the fact of the rise rather than the place itself.
But what is left is in good and well-maintained condition

It's not a very "hyped" place. The locals offer to take you up and back from the road for 15Kdram. I advise you to plan your time and walk away from the road. It's not easy, but you will "feel the difference"

Это было самым сильным впечатлением за всё время двухнедельного путешествия по Армении, одна из причин очень крутой серпантин с дух захватывающими видами ну и конечно сама крепость и самое главное мы там были абсолютно одни, что придавало ощущение невероятного приключения. Поднимались на сузуки джимни, на легковой даже не думайте и обязательно с ассистентом спуска с горы, очень крутой серпантин! Рекомендуем!

К сожалению не смогли добраться до самой крепости, т.к. личный автомобиль не позволял проехать по разбитой дороге. По сути это самый последний участок пути, но без внедорожника с хорошим клиренсом лучше туда не лезть.

A very beautiful place with the remains of a fortress. It takes about an hour to walk from the bottom, the road goes up all the time, the difficulty is easy.

Шикарное историческое место, с восхитительным видом. Начинаешь задумываться о способностях людей строить укрепления в труднодоступных местах.
