Zangezur Mountains

{{unreferenced|date=November 2009}} [[Image:Zangezur_mountains-IMG 1010.JPG|thumb|200px|Zangezur Mountains]] The '''Zangezur Mountains''' comprise a [[mountain range]] that defines the border between [[Armenia]]'s southern province of [[Syunik]] and [[Azerbaijan]]'s [[Nakhichevan|Nakhichevan Autonomous Republic]]. The second largest tracts of forests in Armenia are located in the Zangezur Mountains where they cover more than 20% of the territory of Syunik province and reach an elevation of 2,200-2,400 m. The rest of Armenia is almost devoid of forests. They occur only as small islands on the eastern slopes of the Aragats and Tsakhkunyats ranges and on the southwestern spurs of the Gegham mountains. ==See also== *[[Geography of Armenia]] *[[Geography of Azerbaijan]] *[[Zangezur National Park]], situated in the mountain range of the same name in Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic, Azerbaijan {{Armenia-geo-stub}} {{Azerbaijan-geo-stub}} {{coord missing|Armenia}} {{coord missing|Azerbaijan}}
