“Tent Camp” in Stepanavan
From July 7 to 13, 4 Peaks Alpine Club is organizing a “TENT CAMP” in Stepanavan. This is the 5th camp we have organized. The previous camps went very well and received positive feedback. The camp is educational: through situational games and exercises we will cover mutual assistance, hiking, environmental protection, survival skills, mountain topics and more. The location was not chosen by chance: we took into account Lori’s mild climate, rich nature and the protected setting, while the surrounding pine forest will give the camp a special beauty.
The camp lasts 7 days. Overnight stays are in tents, but we also have a separate cabin with a shower and toilet. The cabin is also an alternative in case of bad weather. The program below may change depending on the weather.
