Itinerary description

Vahagni - Dzoragyugh trail connects 2 villages of Lori province, Armenia.

It's one of the marvelous trails of Lori with fantastic landscape views and easy, comfortable hike.


~~~Some information about this trail~~~

--- Vahagn (Armenian: Վահագն ) was a god of fire, thunder, and war worshiped in ancient Armenia, he is also called Vahagn Vishapaqagh ( վիշապաքաղ ) which literally means Vahagn ''Dragon slayer''.

--- The trail starts from Vahagn Vishapaqagh statue point and ends in Dzoragyugh village ( Ձորագյուղ ).

--- First part of the trail passes through the village, then it enters a forest.

--- The trail is blazed, but marks may be vanished in some points, so it's better to have GPS.

--- Season: Lori has mild climate, so you can hike here from spring till winter (till the first snow, when the path is snow blocked)

--- The best season: late April, May, June, October
