Vorotani Tak Jury is a sulfurous spring located in the Goris area, near the border of southern Armenia and Azerbaijan. The water, around 38°C, flows in the open air, offering wild bathing amid the landscape.
Insider tip — This spring — named 'Vorotani taq jure' (hot water of Vorotan) in Armenian — lies near the Goris area of the southern Caucasus, close to the Vorotan River gorge where Armenia, Azerbaijan, and the Syunik corridor converge. Sulfurous waters emerge from limestone and volcanic rock along the tectonically active zone of the Lesser Caucasus. The dramatic landscape of the Vorotan canyon, with its ancient cave monasteries and sheer basalt cliffs, gives this spring one of the most scenically striking settings in the region.
