Rivers in Armenia

The Pambak (Armenian: Փամբակ), is a river in the Lori Province in Northern Armenia. It is a tributary of the Debed river. It originates in the Pambak Mountains and flows west to east through spectacular gorges around Bazum Mountains. It finally feeds into the Debed near Dzoragyugh, which ultimately drains into the Kura.[1]
