The Caucasus Wildlife Refuge (CWR) was established by the FPWC on 2010, as a Privately Protected Area (PPA). Currently its area is about 30,000 hectares, besides being a crucial habitat for a range of endangered species, it is a part of wildlife migration corridor in southern Armenia. It stretches from Nakhijevan (Azerbaijan) boarder to Artsakh (Nagorno Karabakh) through Ararart and Vayots Dzor provinces. FPWC currently develops touristic infrastructure in the area to promote ecotourism in CWR and draw the attention of larger audience to the Armenian’s unique biodiversity. The amounts generated from tourism are reinvested back into the preservation of area’s unique flora and fauna.
