Kotmani Mountains

Kotmani Mountains form a short range straddling the border of Tavush and Lorri regions, continuing the line of the Gugark mountains northward and running parallel to the Kolb river. The range stretches 14 km, topping out at 1268 m on Salerk, its highest peak.

The slopes are uneven in height and only lightly cut by valleys. The western side runs steep, the eastern side more gradual.

On the range's slope near Archich village, remains of an old iron mine and furnaces once used for smelting iron ore have been found.

Kotmani Mountains lie in Tavush region, on the border with Lorri, with Archich village on their slope. Straight-line distance from Yerevan: ~109 km north-northeast.
