Shikahogh State Reserve

Imagine an ancient forest, so untouched it feels like a dream, filled with some of the oldest trees in the entire region. That is the Shikahogh State Reserve, located in the remote Syunik Province of southern Armenia. This area is a vital sanctuary for the country's diverse wildlife and spectacular primeval forests, dominated by ancient oak and beech trees. It is a true treasure for nature lovers and adventurers seeking raw, unspoiled wilderness.

We highly recommend adding this nature spot to your itinerary when looking at Armenia Tour packages. It offers incredible hiking and photography opportunities away from the more crowded tourist areas. It's a journey into Armenia's biological heartland, famous for its high level of plant and animal biodiversity that you won't see anywhere else in the world.
