Descripción del itinerario
Whenever you travel in Syunik, you can't be not amazed by its mighty Vorotan gorge ( Որոտանի կիրճ ).
This hike is passing through Vorotan canyon started from Halidzor village ( Հալիձոր ) and leading to Satani kamurj ( Սատանի կամուրջ ) - Devils bridge.
Some information about the trail:
--- This trail is a part of the famous "Legend's trail" in Syunik province, it's also considered as a Transcaucasian trail passing through Armenia. So the trail is blazed, but we need GPS here, as it has some confusing parts.
--- Here I have waypoints which will definitely help you with the navigation.
--- I find the best months are September and October here, as you have both a blooming fall and not hot weather and a lot of fruits, etc :)
--- Season for this trail starts from April and lasts till mid November (till first snowfall)․
Take into consideration that summer is too hot here, so I'd suggest hiking the trail either in spring or in autumn.
--- During the hike you'll pass by the 17th century Great Hermitage of Tatev.
--- After getting “Satani kamurj” you can continue the hike to Tatev monastery, then to Bardzravan village the next day.

I hiked this trail from Khalidzor, but turned left to Tatev instead of going to Devil's bridge. The whole path took almost 7 hours for me, so it would take around 5 hours for Khalidzor - Devil's bridge, I suppose. The trail is quite challenging, mostly because the path is easy to lose, it is fading from time to time and overgrown with high grass. The views are picturesque, the green gorge, the mountains of Syunik everywhere, and the beauty of Tatev monastery. The abandoned village of Old Goris impressed me a lot as well. I would recommend going there, but better be with a company and get prepared, take enough water, switch on a GPS tracker and be aware of snakes. (June 2024)
