The Dzoraget is a river in the Debeda hydrological region in the Lori region in Northern Armenia.

It finally feeds into the Debed river near Dzoragyugh, which ultimately drains to the Kura river. Dzoraget is a compound word in Armenian meaning Gorge-river and formed with the lexemes ձոր [dzɔɾ] ('gorge') and գետ [ɡetʰ] ('river').
