The Sevan Lake Loop is a very popular route in Armenia, yet is mostly done by road cyclists but this addition here at FKT will be for walking / running attempts. The route follows the edge of the lake for its entirety, and is fully connected. The Lake Sevan is a high-altitude lake located on 1900 meters, is also the largest lake in the Caucasus and one of the largest freshwater high-altitude lakes in the world.

With ca. 6000m of climbing the Capital Trail is a real challenge, but offers you an amazing variety of singletrack, Land Rover tracks, forest roads and quiet country lanes.

Description

There is a trail race on this route that has typically been held in August and perhaps September. Supported FKT attempts need to better the course record for that race and any CR on the Strava segment for this route. Unsupported attempts should improve on Strava segment times that were not set on race day.
