Kaghsi

A great cliff for beginner and intermediate climbers. The rock is generally good quality basalt. Most of the climbs are in the 5.5-5.9 range with a few 5.10's at the moment. There is a decent amount of trad climbing to be done at the crag as well! The cliff is directly in front of Gohar's house. She is a lovely lady and is very welcoming to climbers. Although she is usually only there in the summer time. Luca Keushguerian (same name on MP) also has keys to the house and is willing to make arrangements if people want to stay there overnight (house has running water, fridge, and a bathroom, etc.) Being at a higher elevation from the city of Yerevan it is much cooler and a wonderful escape from the hectic city life. This cliff gets mid-morning to afternoon sun.

5a Point

This is one of the easiest routes on the cliff and a good climb for beginners. Climb the obvious bolted line with big holds and sometimes smeary feet.

5a Counter Point

Climbs the corner immediately right of Point. Takes good protection. Shares the same anchors with Point

5b The Big Step

This is the left leaning crack to the right of Point/Counterpoint. Easy moves lead to a yoga-like step up onto a big ledge. Takes great gear

6a Little Bones

Start up the ramp for Gohar's slab and climb up the right of the two cracks on the face. Face climbing around the thinning crack leads you higher. Small boulder problem towards the top rewards you with a few good finger locks to the clipping jug. Great nut placements are to be found on this route!

4c Gohar's Slab

Climb up the super low angled slab making a high-step crux towards the top. Has a two bolt anchor at the end of the slab before the wall turns vertical. A great route for children or first timers. If you don't have trad gear you might as well just solo it to set it up for beginners. It's really easy... Also you could climb a "direct" start with the short slabby hand crack, which is kinda fun. The dual cracks up top (left is easier) have been led but there is no top anchor due to chossy nature of the rock at the top. If you're going to do the "second" pitch or link it to the top, make a gear anchor and belay your second up. Goes at about 5.10

6b Let's Face It

A very cool face climb with a thought provoking crux. Climb up solid but hollow flakes trending right underneath a bulge. Figure out how to pull the bulge and regain your composure. A few long moves lead to easier climbing. Once you clip the last bolt, traverse right to a ledge with the anchor.

5c Miss Smiley

Climb up the boulder to a ledge to start the route. The beginning is the crux where you need to stem and get a few finger locks to reach the better crack above. Once past the initial steep part jam and layback your way up the corner with the occasional jug/large edge on either face for feet/rest. Shares the same anchors with Let's Face It.

5c Kaghsi Calling

Climb up the beautiful easy slab to the base of the steep wall. Climb out right using pinches and sloping feet to get better holds higher up then traverse left and use the corner-crackand the occasional face hold until you're faced with a beached-whale-type-mantle onto the belay ledge. Technique will help you on this route a lot more than brute strength will. Looks a lot easier than it is.

5c Wish you were near

Start up come choosy rock until you're underneath a huge block. Hand traverse then continue up the face on incut rails

5b Magical Mystery Route

An adventure sport climb! (if there is such a thing) Boulder up to a ledge and clip some bolts. then stem the chimney using the occasional jug and block as holds (the blocks appear to be solid) Get onto the large ledge then climb up the right side/ slab then back left to clip the anchors.

5c Super Trad

An awesome crack in a corner! If you don't know how to jam this will feel much harder! Climb up the corner with great jams. Pull a small bulge to get to the ledge.

6a Two Cups of Tan

Super neat slab climbing! Would get more stars if the bottom wasn't so dirty. Start by stemming between the wall and the big boulder. After the 2nd bolt go onto the face and climb up using a weird highstep and small sloping feet. Decipher another slightly puzzling crux to gain the last bolt then the anchors.

6b+ Kosmopoliturbo

Bring strong fingers for this one! Climb up an easy start and make a strange mantle on to the ledge. When ready climb up and slightly left on small crimps for a few bolts to a large edge. Make a few more big moves up and right to a big rail. Easier moves bring you to the top.
