WEEK 2 in Armenia

The Snowkite Armenia Expedition: Hidden Peaks, Untouched Powder, and Pure Adventure

You’ve explored Europe’s classic snowkite destinations now it’s time for something completely different.
Welcome to Armenia, a land where ancient culture meets raw mountain energy. Picture yourself gliding through endless white plateaus, framed by 4,000-meter volcanic peaks, with the crisp air of the Caucasus filling your lungs. This is snowkiting in its purest, most authentic form wild, cultural, and truly unforgettable.

What makes this trip unique?
You’ll be kiting in a country few riders have ever imagined visiting for this sport and that’s what makes it special. Every session feels like a discovery. Between the fresh powder, genuine local hospitality, and the warm glow of Armenian brandy in the evening, this journey is as much about connection as it is about kiting.

Let me show you what’s waiting for you in Armenia:

– 7 nights in Gyumri, Armenia’s cultural capital, at a charming boutique hotel with half-board included. The city is bursting with history, art, and incredible local cuisine.
– Professional snowkite guiding by the former governor of the Gyumri region himself a man who knows every valley, every wind corridor, and every mountain story by heart.
– Two world-class kite spots, depending on the season:

Karmravan Plateau (January–March): 8 km² of open white paradise at 2,000 m altitude. No trees, no power lines, no obstacles just pure, uninterrupted snowkiting.
Mount Aragats (May–June): a 4,094 m volcanic giant where you can ride all the way to the summit one of the highest kiteable peaks on the planet.

– Private transport and 4×4 support for all transfers, including airport pick-up in Yerevan and daily “wind chasing” trips through the mountain passes.
– All kite levels welcome. Whether you’re a total beginner or a seasoned pro, our guides adapt to your experience.
– Non-kiters are welcome too! There’s plenty to enjoy guided city tours, monastery visits, local wine tastings, and spa experiences.
