Itinerary description

This route is a connected one gorge to another. Though they are very similar, but we decided to get acquainted to both of them - Andzavadjur canyon (Անձավաջուր, Անձավաջրի կիրճ) and Zozo canyon (Զոզո կիրճ).
Vayots dzor province is famous for its rocky ''walls'' and wild canyons, so this place is a simple prove of it.
~~~What is necessary to know about this trail???~~~
--- It's a little bit unsuitible for hiking, because:
1. The way is not trampled, so sometimes it's really uncofortable to pass, also there are a lot of spiky bushes and nettles (especially in Zozo gorge) that make your hike very ''wild''.
2. There are some ways that are suitable only for experienced hikers to pass (especially the last part of Andzavadjur gorge)
--- The best season could be anytime except summer and firs part of autumn, as at the beginning of June it was unbearable hot there.
--- The most beautiful part of these gorges is in Zozo, so while choosing between these 2 gorges, it's better to choose Zozo (I'll put Zozo's gorges' part of the trail in pictures below).
--- The pictures below show the most beautiful sights of these gorges, unfortunately the big part of the route is not as beautiful as in pictures .
--- The length of 2 gorges is 7 km.
