Armenian town of Tsaghkadzor was named the third best ski resort in the CIS by top Russian tourist portal Travel.ru, with Belarusian Lohoysk and Kyrgyz Karakol coming first and second.

The travel portal has estimated that $50 per day will cover accommodation in a 2* or 3* hotel at a distance of 15 km from the ski lift, as well as dinner at a cafe and a one-day ski pass.

Also, Tsaghkadzor is among the 15 best ski resorts in the post-Soviet area, according to Forbes.
