Sanahin Monastery Getting there & around

Getting there & away

The cable car (AMD50) from Alaverdi is a fun way to reach Sadahart, which is a little more than 1km from Sanahin Monastery. There are also marshrutkas and taxis from Alaverdi to Sadahart (AMD800, 5km). You can also inquire about an early-morning bus that travels from Sadahart straight to the Bagratashen–Sadakhlo border. If you are hitching, the turn-off from Alaverdi is 1km south of town at the bridge. Hikers may want to walk from Sanahin to Haghpat, via the village of Akner. The 7km walk takes less than three hours.
