Arpa River Gorge

The Arpa River Gorge in Jermuk is characterized by mountainous and volcanic terrain in its upper reaches, and you can descend to it from the Jermuk Bridge or from the abandoned sanatorium "Gladzor". On the opposite side of the canyon there is a Deer sculpture, from which a view of the gorge opens and a dirt trail to the hot springs begins. At the foot of the powerful "Mermaid's Hair" waterfall, which falls directly into the river, there is a unique "Arch of Wishes" — a through opening in the rock carved by water and weathered by winds over thousands of years.
