Stepanavan Dendropark, is an arboretum located near the Gyulagarak village, Lori Province. The park was founded in 1931 by Polish engineer-forester Edmund Leonowicz. The arboretum is 35 ha in total of which 17.5 ha consist of natural forest and 15 ha of ornamental trees. Is thought to be the first place in the Transcaucasus, where a natural forest landscape had been reshaped into a Forest Park. Nowadays the arboretum is of interest to the general public, professional scientists and eco-tourists.
