Lake Parz (Armenian: Պարզ լիճ, romanized: Parz lich, lit. 'Clear Lake') is a small lake located in the Dilijan National Park east of Dilijan in Armenia. The lake was formed by natural climatic changes.[1]

In 2017, the Transcaucasian Trail was created to connect Parz Lake with the town of Dilijan and in the opposite direction with Gosh village and Gosh Lake. The trail was created through the building of new trail segments to connect existing trails or dirt roads together.

In 2018, a new trail that loops around the lake was built.

There is a restaurant, paddle boats, ropes course and zip lines around the lake.
