Take a hike in one of Vayots Dzor’s natural sanctuaries or protected areas to view Vayots Dzor’s ochre-colored mountains, swim in one of the region’s famed hot springs or take a glimpse at an elusive Bezoar goat. Whether you wish to spend your time hiking or simply enjoying a picnic near a waterfall’s edge, Vayots Dzor’s natural landscape will provide you with a fun range of activities!
