Description

The start of this trail can be found to the north of Tatev after following the road that winds north from the village. From there it descends to the Vorotan Estuary and follows it through the canyon until it becomes a lake, where swimming is allowed.

Old Harjis Village is located 3.5 km above the canyon, with its old roads and an ancient stone bridge built high on the mountains to the left. Inhabitants of the village tell stories of pilgrims and traders that journeyed on these roads long ago.
