Mount Khustup

Khustup (Armenian: Խուստուփ) is the highest summit of the Khustup–Katar range in the southern Caucasus, south of Kapan in Armenia’s Syunik Province. The peak rises to 3,206 metres, with the Vachagan River flowing nearby. The mountain has strong historical associations with Armenian military leader Garegin Nzhdeh, who fought in the area and was buried at its foot. The village of Bekh, with its own distinctive history and culture, lies on the mountain’s slopes.
