The snow-capped cones of the Ghegam Ridge volcanic field rise across Lake Sevan from a fishing village on its NE shore. This volcanic field in west-central Armenia covers a 35-km-wide area between the capital city of Yerevan and Lake Sevan. Morphologically youthful lava flows from the central and eastern portions of Ghegam Ridge flowed into Lake Sevan.
