Description

Ski at Myler Mountain Resort, visit ancient monasteries, and see the Armenian Alphabet Monument on a private day trip from Yerevan.
Begin your journey with a visit to the Hovhannavank Monastery, a stunning complex dating back to the 4th century. Admire the breathtaking views of Mount Ararat and discover the famous “Foolish Virgins” relief carved on the church’s tympanum.

Next, stop at the Armenian Alphabet Monument, built to celebrate the 1600th anniversary of the Armenian script. Marvel at the 39 letters carved from red tuff stone, standing at human height in the shadow of Mount Aragats.

Continue to the Giant 3D Cross, a 33-meter monument commemorating 1700 years of Christianity as Armenia’s state religion. Enjoy panoramic views of Ararat, Aragats, and Ara — three of Armenia’s most iconic mountains.

Visit the Holy Cross Basilica, one of Armenia’s earliest basilicas, and explore the evolution of early Armenian church architecture. Then, head to the Bash Aparan Memorial, dedicated to the Armenian militia’s victory over Ottoman forces in May 1918.

Finally, arrive at the Myler Mountain Resort, a brand-new ski destination with modern lifts, wide empty slopes, and stunning mountain views. Spend 3–4 hours skiing or snowboarding on wide, comfortable slopes with almost no tourists around. If you don’t ski, you can simply take the cable car up to the viewpoint, admire the snowy mountains, and enjoy lunch in a traditional Armenian restaurant.
