Devil's bridge

Devil's bridge is located at the deepest section of the Vorotan Canyon; cliff edges are 700-800 meters above the riverbed. The canyon is also so narrow that on many days sunlight never reaches the bottom, or for just minutes a day.

The natural bridge is 30 meters long and 50-60 meters wide, and for much of the region’s history it was the bridge used to cross the river to get to Tatev. A number of warm and cool springs erupt from the cliff walls, many seeming to “bleed” from the striated stone, coloring it with its mineral water.

A short hike down the “bridge” leads to a warm water spring that feeds a manmade pool, which then runs off into a natural pool of cool water. Both pools are popular with locals in the summer.
