Tendürek Volcano

Tendürek (Turkish Tendürek Dağı, Armenian Թոնդրակ) is a shield volcano located 50 km southwest of Mount Ararat on the border of the Ağrı and Van provinces in Turkey. Its height reaches 3533 meters. On the eastern side of the volcano is the Tendürek Pass (2644 m), through which the D 975 road passes, connecting the cities of Iğdır and Hakkari.

One of the rock formations on Tendürek, described by Turkish pilot İlham Durupınar, who flew over the area in 1957, resembles the shape of Noah's Ark. This volcano is an important natural site and attracts tourists and researchers with its unique nature and historical associations.
