Village on the slope above the Debed River in Armenia's Lori Province, Shnogh sits in the mountainous Gugarq region amid forests of wild berries and fruit trees, with copper, molybdenum, and iron mines worked in the surrounding hills since ancient times. The complex terrain gives the settlement an unusual topographic character, and the wider Lori region holds several UNESCO World Heritage sites.
