  • Dzoraget River
    Here you will find medieval forts on top of steep rocky hills, between which the rapid and stormy river turns into a quiet backwater creating the most exciting scenery of the valley. From here on your ascending trail N bends to the left and goes high onto the northern rim of the canyon.
  • Hnevank Monastery
    Hnevanq is located on a hillside of the Dzoraget valley where the combination of green nature and volcanic felsites stones is really impressive. The 7th-century monastery consists of three churches, a vestibule, and residential, economic, and auxiliary buildings that were entirely rebuilt in the 12th century by the princely House of Orleans, a branch of glorious Mamikonyans princely family, the ancient leaders of Armenian military forces.
