As promised we continue sharing our daily activities from Kapan Eco Camp ARK Armenia FB page.
Iran, Czech Republic, Armenia and Poland says 'Hello' from Kapan!:) Volunteering is the main instrument of operating at ARK ecological NGO. We receive volunteers from all over the world, long and short time volunteers, institutional and non-institutional once. Each of them bring something new to us, we learn and teach from each other, closely cooperate and become friends forever. All our volunteers are so efficient and helpful, they breathe new life in ARK. We are very grateful to all of them. They help us from marking trails from Tatev to Kapan to permaculture gardening and construction works. Not to lose the track of them we ask them write their blogs on FB, which we will share every day. DAY 1 Hey everybody! My name is Kasia and I come from Poland. I have the pleasure to cooperate with Siranush and Armen from ARK Armenia. During this month I will be providing You with some info about what's going on in the ecocamp in Kapan. Have a nice day! :) DAY 2
Today we cut out the side bushes. No more hide&seek game with the snakes. We have had great news recently.
Our Tatev-Kapan trail was tested. And it worked. Travellers from Germany Eric Heinz and his daughter Liz hiked from Tatev to Kapan, staying the first night at B&B in Aghvani village, the second night at ARK camp "The Dach" in Arajdzor village and reached ARK Kapan Camp on the third day of their hike. We are really excited, because they liked the experience very much. Tatev - Kapan trail now tested is waiting for travellers. Now ARK is working to find more B&B partners in Aghvani or Tandzaver villages, for bigger groups to stay and we are also looking for a partner in one of the villages to organize a camp site for those who travel with their tents. That is what Eric writes in Lonely Planet travelers forum. "From Tatev we did a 3-day hike to Kapan following a trail suggestion by ARK Armenia (see www.arkarmenia.com), a small but active NGO working on developing ecotourism in the Kapan area, and a useful address for travelers anyway. One night we spend in a villagers house, the others in camps provided by ARK. We stayed 2 days in Kapan doing some local hiking trails." Find the entire report here.
