Lake Parz

Reviewed By mikegO5244DL - Beirut, Lebanon

After driving for about 30 minutes through the fabulous forests of Dilijan, we reached Lake Parz with my wife and 2 children. It is a small lake, surrounded by trees with activities like rowing, a zip line across the lake and tree top challenges. We tried and enjoyed all of them. You can rent as small canoe for 2000 AMD (about 4$) and row all across the lake for 30 minutes. There are a lot of things to do, small snacks to feed you and amenities. We spent a few hours there and were sorry to leave. Our only consolation was the fact that we had to go back the same way we came - through the 'enchanted forest'.

Jukhtakvank Monastery

Reviewed By GurgenA2

If you like hiking you should not miss this. If you are not disabled and have extra two-three hours in Dilijan do hike up. It is extremely easy hike - totally worth the efforts. Jukhtakvank is a complex of two small chapels hidden in the mountainous forest. You can take a car towards the direction of Mineral Water Factory along the river Bildan to the very end, and hike up from there.
