Horomayr Monastery is a monastic complex in the Lori Province of Armenia.

The monastery is built on the cliffs 1 km south of the village of Odzun. It is easiest to get to Odzun from Alaverdi via the town's public transport. To get to the site, the visitor may climb up from the highway along the Debed River, or hike south across the cliffs from the last switchback to Odzun. The fastest but hardest route is to climb down the cliff south of Odzun.The monastery is built in part at the top of the cliff, in part halfway down. At the top, there is a three-chambered chapel.

Below, the walls of the canyon form one of the four walls of the structures. There are caves within the monastic complex, khachkars, and carvings.
