The Dzhavakhet Range is a mountain range located in the southern part of the Caucasus Mountains, which are situated in Asia. This range is an extension of the Lesser Caucasus and is situated to the south of the Kura-Aras Lowland. The Dzhavakhet Range, along with the Armenian Highland, forms the southern boundary of the Lesser Caucasus. Geologically, these ranges originated from folds uplifted from the Alpine geosyncline. The landscape of the Dzhavakhet Range is characterized by volcanic debris from eruptions that occurred during the Cenozoic Era.1234
