Stepanavan Dendropark, Protected forest area in Lori Province, Armenia.
The Stepanavan Dendropark spans 35 hectares at 1450 meters altitude, containing 17.5 hectares of natural forest and 15 hectares of ornamental tree plantings.
Polish engineer Edmund Leonowicz established the dendropark in 1931 and served as its director until 1984, when his son continued managing the facility.
The park functions as an educational center where students and scientists study environmental adaptations and conduct research on Transcaucasian flora varieties.
Visitors can access the park daily from 10 AM to 7 PM, with a detailed map available at the entrance showing the locations of 500 plant species.
Five young Californian sequoia trees grow together in the park, representing some of the rarest specimens in the entire Transcaucasus region.
