From Norashen village to the mountains of Eranos
Mountain biking trail description
The mountain biking trail starts from Norashen village, Ararat province. On the way, in the gorge, a two-kilometer part of the trail is missing. Ararat region is famous for mountainous climate. People are mainly engaged in gardening. The biking trail is unique because it always goes through two-sided Rocky Mountains. The dry, semi-desert climate, the sun-warming mountains and pastures of the sun reminded the scenes of the film at once. Sometimes there are even small rivers that save the uninterrupted "work" of nature.
