Horomayr Kloster
Kobayr Kloster
Würden Sie gerne wilden Ziegen begegnen? Dann folgen Sie diesem Pfad in der malerischen Provinz Lori, die Sie vom Kobayr-Kloster des 5. Jahrhundert zur Odzun-Kirche führt. 
Sie fahren durch eine atemberaubende Schlucht und passieren das verlassene Kloster Horomayr. Dort erwartet Sie ein atemberaubender Blick auf die Schlucht und die umliegenden Dörfer. Auf der Route werden Sie wahrscheinlich einige wilde Ziegen treffen, seien Sie bereit dazu, in ihnen neue Freunde zu finden. Wir empfehlen jedoch nicht, den Tieren zu nahe zu kommen, ähnlich wie bei allen anderen Wildtieren in Armenien.

Very nice hike! We didn't see any goats but sheep, cows, pigs and giant grasshoppers :) the trail is sufficiently marked and easy to follow. In Odzun village, there are several guest houses, we didn't have problems to find a place to sleep. We stayed in "B&B Odzun", the owner speaks French fluently.

We loved this hike so much, dude. What a trip. We saw some horses literally trot into an ancient monastery, like am I in a dream?

Really lovely hike. The hike to Horomayr monastery is quite steep but worth the effort.

We had a blast hiking this trail and the views are incredible. We found it to be pretty easy, although we somehow lost the trail after Horomayr and could not make our way up to Odzun. We passed Odzun by a trail in the canyon and just walked down to the main road and called a taxi, so it worked out! Overall, a great hike though.

This hike was beautiful. I even got to see the goats mentioned in the trail description. With the right boots and the right attitude you can do it!
Aline Yordikian
Breathtaking view! Would rate this trail medium to high because some part were quite steep. Meeting sheeps on the road was a unique experience as you are feeling deeply connected with fauna & flora. When you arrive in Odzun, make sure you go visit the church! Pants & long sleeves shirt needed.

About halfway through the trail you can climb up to Horomayr monastery but be aware, it's quite steep!!

A great hiking trail with stunning landscapes of the Debet canyon. Incredible colors in the Autumn. When you get to Odzun, make sure to meet Father Vrtanes, the abbot of the Odzun church.

We had stunning views without any humans crossing our way, but a flock of goats with shepherd dogs, horses, cattle and even bunch of pigs! The path was easy to find, only at the 2 monasteries we struggled a bit to find our way back to the trail. On the last bit underneath Odzun it's sad that paople have thrown their garbage over the cliff and it pollutes the trail. At the end the cathedral of Odzun is a beauty and the hospitable priest invited us for a coffee and some cherries in his garden!

Fantastic hike! I did it in reverse in mid 2017. Visited the hidden church halfway through, saw goats and a couple of barking shepherd dogs but they were harmless. I'd recommend long pants to get past some thorny bushes. check if the road between kobayr and vanadzor is actually open.
