Yerevan Peninsula High Balls | |||||
V3 | Gyumri
The left most boulder problem on the cliff. Despite it's danger rating, it has solid rock and movements! Start in a corner and make a big move up and right to a good pocket (can be done both static or dynamic) Make a few more difficult moves to get established in the upper corner, then enjoy a slightly more casual top out. Careful. If you blow any of the upper moves you'll come crashing down onto a large boulder and probably get really messed up... | 6m | |||

Yerevan Old School | |||||
V3 | ★★ Shadows and Dust
Sit start the crack and lay back up to a nice large flat edge. Make a move or two on good edges then tackle the crux. The crux requires a high left foot to stand up into an undercling above your head. Slap the jug right above it. Then traverse easily off left. To find it walk to the left end of the Old school wall. Climb up 5 feet to a small ledge (Where The Wire starts) and follow the cliff line to the end. Shadows and The Kung Fu Method are located right there before you turn the corner. This is the middle/obvious crack at the end of the cliff line. | 3m | |||
Yerevan Shengavit (Gurgen Melikyan crag) | |||||
{FR} 7a | ★★ Black Dog
A boulder problem down low leads to easier climbing. | 10m | |||
FR:7a | Ground Zero
Start from the ground, not from the rock. Beware of rope friction when lowering Set: Stas Mikhaylov | ||||
Noravank Canyon Central Sector | |||||
{FR} 6c+ | ★★ Totkam
A steepish route with multiple cruxes separated with good rests. The first bolt is a bit high but there is a good clipping hold. | 25m | |||
{FR} 6c+ | Iranian 1 | 120m, 4 | |||
Noravank Canyon Rose Sector | |||||
{FR} 6c+ | ★★ Noravank Rose
A deceptively hard face climb. A bouldery start leads to a small ledge where a rest can be had. Continue up the face on small edges and pockets for a few bolt or until you reach another boulder problem. Using very small holds, and even smaller feet, climb over the bulge. Easier climbing leads you to the anchors. The opening boulder problem will feel harder for short people Set: Simone Flechaire | 20m | |||
{FR} 7a | ★ Cucumber
Climb up the face on crimps with good feet the whole way up. As you make your way to the very top you'll encounter two drilled pockets, it is possible to skip them. Sustained and techy all the way up Pay attention to a number of quickdraws before jumping in. You can skip a few of 'em, though | 30m, 17 | |||
Hell's Canyon East | |||||
FR:6c+ | ★★ Nzhdeh
When it comes to movement this is one of the bets pitches at the crag! Sadly it has been the site of much controversy regarding it's bolting. What was originally a perfectly safe route has been dumbed down by retro-bolting from a few weak-minded individuals...If you want to climb the route in it's formal glory, only clip the original bolts (it's very easy to distinguish due to the new bolts being very shiny) anyways...climb up the easy slab to where the wall turns to vertical. Make some big moves on good incut edges until you can clip the anchors from a stance under the big flake. Clipping the anchor may be harder if you're short. | 24m | |||
FR:6c+ | ★★ Hell's Diamond
A wonderful, long route that has managed to avoid the wrath of retro-bolting... Climb up the easy slab to face climbing and a dihedral with technical and thought provoking moves. | 30m | |||
FR:7a | ★★ Sea of Dream
A massive route that climbs the entire cliffs face. Climb up the vertical face encountering a mini crux on sloping edges. climb a few easier bolts to a ledge which you could bivi on. Rest up and when ready fire the last 40 feet of power-crimping on beautiful rock (real crux). If not for the ledge rest it would be an incredible mega-endurance route. This route is LONG so bring either an 80m rope or two 60m to get off. Because it is not very overhanging, cleaning on rappel is ok! | 40m | |||
Ohanavan West | |||||
{FR} 6c+ | ★★ World on Fire
An aesthetic climb with a memorable crux! An easy and less steep start leads up to harder and increasingly pumpier climbing to the final overhang where you must dispatch a puzzling, and committing final crux. One of the best at the crag for sure Set: Luca Keushguerian, Sep 2020 FFA: Joseh DeGeanto, Oct 2020 | 21m | |||
Ohanavan East | |||||
{FR} 6c+/7a | ★ KSM | 12m | |||
Dilijan Bisetktor The Empress Slabs | |||||
FR:6c+ | Seams Solid
Climb past 2 bolts to a beautiful right facing corner. Shares anchors with Lichen My Whistle FA: Graham McGrener, Aug 2019 Set: Val Ismaili & Kim McGrener, Aug 2019 | 20m, 2 | |||
5.11c | ★★★ Lil Swolie
This Burly rock climb will get you jacked. Watch out for a hidden pocket halfway up. FA: Graham McGrener, Aug 2019 Set: Graham MCGrener, Aug 2019 | 15m, 7 |
