Yerevan - Post Report Question and Answers

There is a small gym inside the Embassy and a nice walking path outside the Embassy compound so you’ll see a lot of the local staff and employees taking walks on nice days. Plenty of pilates and yoga studios, but the workout schedules may not align with your work schedule. There are gyms in downtown as well but people typically opt to run outside, especially when the weather is nice between April and June. Hiking is big here and there is even a Sunday hiking group, but you’ll need a car to drive to the trails. - Jul 2026

The embassy compound has a pretty large green space with a playground, track, and volleyball and tennis courts. The commissary arranges Zumba, yoga classes, and tennis instruction at the embassy. - May 2021
