A great place, there are no queues for lifts, a lot of trails, the trails themselves are wide. The staff speaks Russian fluently. There is everything: a rental car, a cafe, a vending machine, and a store where you can buy inventory.

Nothing has changed on the slopes in the last 10 years. Several rental and catering outlets have appeared at the bottom. The chairs on the lift are ragged, especially on the third one. They say that the eagles pecked))) I recommend those who go for a ride.

I went to the ski center while in Armenia on business. So, it only happened once. Therefore, it is possible that the assessment is not entirely objective, since part of the slopes was closed. The skiing is not bad, there are not enough tracks, but I did not expect that this was Austria, so I managed to ride. The tracks are smooth, not difficult, soft skating, with elements of red trails, in my opinion. There are not enough lifts, the queues are decent, you roll down from the very top sooner than you climb up. It is better to bring your own inventory, there is a lot at the box office, but the first freshness and prices are too high. The center has apparently not been updated for a long time. You can move out several times, but coming for a long ride, for a week, say, I think it will be boring...

A cool resort except for the lifts, they are slow and more suitable for tourists but not for skiing)the most interesting thing is, of course, the upper stage of the cable car, but it can be closed due to weather conditions.the coolest person is the local guide Aro) and freeride will show you and help you with any questions)it is not difficult to find him, he is always waiting for you at the cafe where music is playing

There are few trails, no snow cannons, no signs, and the lifts are slow. They don't waste the tracks well. The black tracks are actually red. Maybe you were unlucky with the hotel, but the service is bad.

We were at the end of February, there was little snow, there was even clay, but a day before the departure there was a lot of snow, we had a great ride. Price guide: 1 day of skiing (ski pass) - 2400 rubles. 1 day of equipment rental (person) - 1500 rubles. The only drawback is the open lifts, when the wind is strong, it is difficult to climb up because of the cold. Tsakhadzor is an excellent ski resort with wide slopes, a minimum of people and beautiful landscapes.

Skiing is great in winter, in summer you can have a great walk through the mountains covered with forest. In summer, the lift also works, but only on one level.

The resort is good, but it still needs to develop and develop. There are no guns on the slopes. If there is no snow from the sky, then the slope is in the hole))) I saw one snowboarding figure)) but I was standing around doing nothing)) It's a good start. We should have more lifts.

The slopes are cool. Infrastructure for a C grade. At 5 p.m., everyone was kicked off the slopes, the lifts were stopped, although the sun was still shining. We didn't roll back our skipasses as a result. And they can't be used the next day.

The mountains are a bit weak compared to Sochi, everything is new at the box office, there are a lot of pestles, Armenia is good, as always. It will also be interesting for children and beginners. It's a very long lift! If it's cold, you'll get cold.

Beautiful nature, it's worth coming to see. The approach of the staff was disappointing: at the bottom you pay for a full-fledged ascent and descent (we asked again - we were repeatedly told that this is a single ticket for the ascent to the end). At the entrance to the cable car, for some reason, the ticket was taken away by an employee under the pretext that this was how it should be. And during the transfer, it turned out that since I don't have a ticket, I need to buy it again! And they did it twice. This has greatly spoiled my impression of Tsakhkadzor as a ski resort. Unfortunately, it did not work out to ride - there was no snow.

Our impressions of the ski trip in Tsakhkadzor. We have been here for as many as 9 days, and we found the most different weather, but we have one conclusion: the slopes are not monitored and cared for properly. The first days we were in euphoria, and it was like there was grass sticking out on the slope in places, icy ground, and snow somewhere along the edges of the trails. But when the euphoria passed, we began to wonder why they didn't put snow cannons where the ground was frankly bare, why they didn't trample the slopes. I note that we saw how the slopes are trampled - right on the ground and on the protruding grass, I wanted to know for what purpose? So that you can say "we'll waste it, everything is OK"?))) Then we thought, maybe we are so picky, there are people riding somehow, although they are periodically crippled, well, that's okay)) But one day I was riding a ski lift with a man who turned out to be an instructor at this ski resort. And he asked me: "do you like these tracks at all? Are you satisfied with their condition?", and when I shyly replied that they were actually not very comfortable, because they were worn down to the ground in places, he told me that he sincerely did not understand why we vacationers did not complain to the management, because we pay a lot of money for our vacation, but we get this eternal discomfort on the slopes. That they should put up guns, trample THROUGH the SNOW so that the snow was "nailed" to the mountain, and it was not blown into the forest. There shouldn't be such bald spots on the descent, it's not dangerous, after all! And I completely agree with him, that's why I'm writing this review now. And by the way, it snowed twice a week. Of course, this precious snow was not "nailed", it was not wasted, and it was simply blown off the slopes🤷♀️ The lower slopes are with a piece of land and a grass, and you can't hit the upper slopes either, because the wind penetrates the lifts through a helmet and 2 balaclavas so that the brain freezes. And at the same time, wind screens are not provided on the lifts. We reached the third station only once, when the weather was clear and windless. And there, too, they found icy tracks without snow with peeping grass. Photo

Everything is average. There are no places to change clothes, no storage rooms. There are few people, especially in the morning, the bulk of them are pulled up by 13:00. Trails and lifts work according to the weather. There are only armchairs everywhere, it's quite cold in windy weather.

For beginners, skating is the best thing! But there's trouble with the rental, a lot of nonames, shoes are all about mint. Do not hesitate to ask for everything to be picked up clearly or see for yourself how to set up the equipment correctly, etc. Do not rely on competent instructors, in general it is not bad, everything is as simple as possible. I recommend Elite rental, but also beg for good gear, they have something! You can use a MIR card or cash.

A cool ski resort with great trails, no queues and no people on the slope. The trails are large, the descent is from 15 minutes, the views are magnificent, we got into the season, almost all the time there was the sun, which also warmed when it was cold at -15, good instructors, very pleasant to communicate with and with a lot of experience. I would have come back again

The staff on the lifts is not competent, every year is new, they do not know the rules of boarding. They tried to put my 8-year-old daughter alone (on a 2-seater outdoor lift), while I told them several times that do not put the child in, as a result she got scared and fell into a snowdrift behind the lift (we were walking together, and the gate opened only for her, I don't know what they have there it works in one place). I had to, sorry, yell at them, explaining how not to do it. As a result, the child is in tears, and was afraid and hysterical on the descent, although he can ride. There are pseudo instructors who are trying to work not officially. Official in red suits with a yellow vest. The tracks are generally good, but it is difficult for beginners, and boring for those who know how. There is no way that there would be an entirely blue track or an entirely red one. After lunch, there is a huge queue, which many people try to get into early. Near the ticket offices, and in general there is nowhere to lean the skis, only near the cafe (it is difficult to make 2 poles and 2 boards with bars??).

The wheelchair is not bad. It will do for Armenia. But not so much that it's worth coming here. One of the disadvantages is very slow lifts. Well, very much. The slope is empty, it is quite possible to get up faster. The Armenian style service can be traced, of course

In conditions of almost inaccessible Alps, it is a very good replacement option, especially for beginners and lovers of calm skiing. The trails are long, the instructors are Russian-speaking. There are few people on the lifts. Among the disadvantages are a small amount of snow in the absence of snow cannons, a strong wind at the top, which blows away the natural snow cover. Because of this, there are stones on the tracks in places. My own skis are pathetic because of this, and what is available in several rentals is in a very poor condition. The chairlifts are somewhat slow and without protective visors, when climbing to the top, the wind blows pretty much. All this is compensated by the friendly staff and the opportunity to have a very tasty meal in the village in the evening. Just keep in mind that the country is not rich and the service is appropriate. They should have invested more...

Very slow lifts, where you freeze while climbing, especially if there is wind. The trails are marked with signs, but there are no signs indicating the route numbers. The guys who own it are not some huge capital investments, but it adds convenience, at least it is easier to find. There is no artificial snowmaking system, so the condition of the trails depends on the weather, there was snow norm, there was no snow for a long time - stones and earth. The resort staff does not monitor safety at all: they do not limit the crowds of people just walking and staring, they go out in groups to the slopes for photographing, blocking the descents and entrances to the lifts. Well, give them zones for selfies already, it will be more convenient for everyone. I regularly see craftsmen rushing down on a slide, without a single attempt to carve. Such an extreme can not only harm himself, but also other people on the track. Entrances and exits from the resort are parked by cars, which is why traffic jams are gathering. Well, is it really impossible to cooperate with the local traffic police in this matter and arrange parking, especially on weekends? The conclusion is that you should not go on purpose, but if you are already in Armenia, then come here on weekdays.

I've been to Tsakhkadzor 3 times already. The lifts are certainly old and slow. But the tracks are great, there was a lot of snow. Beautiful views. The resort has expanded a lot over the years. Lots of new hotels. Good restaurants. But the lifts certainly require reconstruction. The new Mailer resort is a serious competitor to Tsakhkadzor

While there were covid restrictions in European resorts, we had a great rest in Tsakhkadzor. A small ski resort with three lines of lifts. The snow is natural. If there is, then there is. If not, then no one sprays guns, there are none. On weekdays, skiing is just fine, there are few people, the slopes are wide. But a lot of tourists come on weekends and you stand in line for the lifts more (and they are sooo slow) than you ride. Minus one star is for the armchair. Climb the Tegenis from below for 40 (!) minutes. You can get some sleep while you're driving. If you don't get sick from the biting wind. All the chairs are open. It is because of the wind that the queue is very often closed. Namely, it makes sense to climb there in order to see Ararat and Sevan from the very top in good weather. Otherwise, it is delicious, inexpensive, and hospitable)

I returned from Tsakhkadzor yesterday. I have been very fond of this resort since Soviet times - in summer I wander through the mountains, in winter I ski. Everything is super and the prices don't bite - accommodation, food, and ski rental. Only the cost of instructors is not cheap - 15 thousand drams, and it is not a fact that they are worth the money. The weather was beautiful - snow and sun, -3 in the afternoon, perfect for skiing. The only thing that upsets is the safety of the slopes. There are almost no nets, and where there are, they are stretched on metal rails, and at a meter height. That is, they are almost meaningless - if you fall, you slide into a ditch under the grid in any case, or you fly into the rail with a swing, which happened to me yesterday. It's a good thing it turned out to be bruises, not a fracture, otherwise I would have sued everyone there. And this problem has been around for many years! And all you need to do is buy a normal modern grid and install it correctly, and if you pull it on a metal pole, then you need to at least close it with a sponge. This is an important issue, it needs to be resolved! And so the resort is wonderful for its price

I want to drink the air, no, I want to eat it - it's so delicious! You can go skiing, get dressed and shod properly, experienced instructors will help. Or you can just ride the cable car and drink a warming tea with amazingly delicious cakes. You can have lunch too.
