Vahagn and Astghik waterfalls

We will go on a hike to the waterfalls of the Khosrov Reserve, which are named after the Armenian pagan gods Astghik and Vahagn.

The hike will start from the village of Garni. First, we will see the Symphony of Stones in the Azat Gorge, then, after crossing an 11th-century bridge, we will enter the Khosrov Reserve and continue our way to the waterfalls.

Vahagn and Astghik waterfalls

In Armenia, as in many other countries, paganism has left a deep mark. Some waterfalls in Armenia are even named after the beloved Armenian gods. For example, in the Khosrov Reserve, there are four waterfalls, two of which are located close to each other and are named after Armenian pagan deities, Astghik (the goddess of love and beauty) and Vahagn (the god of fire and war).

The Khosrov Reserve is an ideal place for hiking. And in hot weather, it’s especially nice to stop and refresh yourself by these beautiful waterfalls.
