Yell Extreme Park is Armenia's first adventure park, located in the village of Yenokavan in the Tavush region, about a two-hour drive from Yerevan. Launched in 2015 with the country's first zip-line, it has grown into a multi-activity outdoor destination set in forested mountain terrain, combining adrenaline sports with the region's nature. Visitors can try a 5-line zip-line course (speeds up to 80 km/h, gliding at around 1,400 m above sea level), Via Ferrata cliff climbing routes secured by cables and ladders, off-road mountain trips in open-sided Kamaz trucks, and horseback riding; the park also has an on-site café and picnic areas for resting between activities.
