Challenge

For almost a decade now, tourism has been considered one of the priorities of the RA economic development. In the last few years Berd region has seen limited progress in recreational and touristic trail development projects. Consequently, the potential of the region as a trail tourism destination remains largely unknown and entirely unexploited. There is no sustainable economic growth provided by local businesses and therefore expansion into a new sector.

Solution

The goal of the Sari Janaparh project is to take the first steps in creating access to the region for trail users by connecting the existing trails of the Getik Valley and Dilijan National Park to the city of Berd and the surrounding villages by means of a new long-distance recreational trail, with the future intention to continue the trail network to Ijevan.

Long-Term Impact

The eastern part of Tavush province known as Shamshadin shows great potential as a trail tourism destination, set on the dramatic northeastern edge of the Lesser Caucasus mountain range and criss-crossed by a network of historic footpaths and dirt roads between villages and cultural heritage sites. A long-distance trail connecting existing trails in neighbouring areas of Tavush and Gegharkunik to Shamshadin would expand access to and awareness of the region as part of Armenia's growing recreatio
