Features:
Jrvezh Forest Park, located 10 km east of Yerevan, is a worth-it spot for a destination run. This is by far the largest park in the Yerevan area, and a nice oasis away from the dense city. There are numerous paths around the park — some very wide, others narrower and more rugged. The landscape is fairly open and there are lots of trees, but not dense forest. There are wonderful views of the surrounding hillsisde and Mount Ararat. Note: very hilly!
The main section of the park is located off the H3. A loop of the paths is ~5 km, with other paths that can be added. We’ve mapped a suggested loop to use as a guideline.
