I had a great time hiking mount Gutanasar! Our experienced guide, Ivan, was really fun to hike with and he made everyone feel welcome. Most importantly, he was meticulously prepared and he had full knowledge of the terrain. Everybody felt safe out in the field and that's why everybody enjoyed it. I highly recommend hiking with WeHikeAm, especially if you want to experience the untamed beauty of the Armenian highlands. Plus, the traditional Armenian soup was really tasty! Thank you Ivan!
I love hiking and do it often, so I wanted to try a hike with some additional entertainment. I found a hike to Artanish Mountain near Lake Sevan that included a sauna, and it caught my attention. Usually, I don't like group tours, but this one was fantastic.
Ivan is an experienced hiker, and we had many conversations about Mount Ararat (I've never been there and now feel inspired to go) and Crimea (I realized how much I miss my homeland and that I barely remember its mountains and landmarks).
We had tea with barberry and sea buckthorn, and I even managed to capture a few drone shots. But the most enjoyable part was the sauna. After a long hike, it was incredible to relax with a sauna session and swim in the cold waters of Sevan.
Ivan also treated us to a feast—I regretted not having my youthful appetite! The borscht, charlotte, and pancakes made with beer were amazing.
I highly recommend traveling with We Hike. They seem truly passionate about their work and love traveling.
