Project Description
This project suggests creating a modern
resort complex in the territory of former
“Artek” international pioneer camp located
in Vanadzor, Lori Marz. The camp previously
had several buildings that currently are not
functional and are recommended to be
demolished. The main building, however,
should be reconstructed and used. The total
area of “Artek” is 5,3 hectares.
The complex will include a hotel and an
aerial adventure park. The hotel will occupy
5,200 sq. m and will include 70 rooms and 5
cottages. The park will offer many
entertaining activities, such as: archery, all
terrain scooter riding, biking, forest survival
courses,
trampolines,
a
children’s
playground, horse riding and other
activities. Besides, rope courses with a
unique blend of wooden platforms built on
top of the surrounding trees and connected
by exhilarating combinations of ropewalks,
obstacles, climbing elements, and zip lines
will
be
available
for
visitors.
Vanadzor has a population of about
90.000 people and is the third largest city in
Armenia. Surrounded by lofty mountains
and located between Tbilisi (Georgia) and
Yerevan (Armenia), Vanadzor has a great
potential to become an easily accessible
resort city offering quality services for
affordable prices to local and international
tourists alike. With its stunning landscape,
green mountains and mild weather,
Vanadzor has already become a lovely
summer destination, where tourists have a
chance to stroll around and enjoy nice
weather, organize picnics with family and
friends, have a great time in pubs and cafes
and admire beautiful nature. Still, the full
potential of Vanadzor city hasn’t been
realized yet: it can offer much more in terms
of diversifying its services, improving service
quality, as well as becoming an
exceptionally attractive winter destination.
Vanadzor is an ideal winter sports
destination since it has heavy snowfall, but
mild temperature with plenty of daylight. In
contrast with other resort areas in Armenia,
