Highlights
Mount Ararat is a standard four day trek, although some people manage to climb to the top in three. All measurements are estimates because distance and elevation markers do not exist. We arrange all equipment for the climb including tents, sleeping bags, pickaxe, hand lamp, mountaineering clothing and shoes. You will have a professional and certified local guide who will prepare three meals a day for you, and, of course, tea. We will also obtain all required official permissions from the state and local authorities for you. This is an arduous trip and is not for everybody. Pre climb training is recommended and if you are starting from a reasonably good fitness base we can advise you on a fitness program that would cover the period required for your permit to be approved.Your luggage and all camping gear is packed on horses and mules for the trek; all you need to carry will be what you require for your immediate personal need

About Van
Van is a lakeside city in eastern Turkey with an ancient Urartian citadel, a Holy Cross church on an island and a famously generous breakfast table.
Van lies on the eastern shore of Lake Van, a vast soda lake ringed by mountains on the high plateau of eastern Turkey. The old city grew beneath the rock of Van Fortress, a long limestone ridge that was the citadel of the Urartian kingdom nearly three thousand years ago, and cuneiform inscriptions are still cut into its cliff, one of them left by the Persian king Xerxes.
