Alanzeh Plain is one of the summer pasture (yaylaq) attractions of Gilan Province, located in Masal County and Shanderman District. This beautiful plain lies near the eastern border of Ardabil Province, about 93 kilometres from Rasht and about 35 kilometres from Masal, of which more than 30 kilometres is dirt road. Alanzeh's unique geographical location makes it an appealing destination for travellers seeking peace and pristine nature.

The landscape of Alanzeh Plain is a delightful blend of wide, green meadows, forest and grassland. The vegetation includes maple trees (up to 200 years old), pear, wild cherry plum and hawthorn. The area has numerous springs, the Vashiyar Waterfall, about 15 metres high, and mountain views. Alongside the natural scenery, you will also find the shrine of Imamzadeh Ebrahim and a large, 200-year-old sacred tree.

To get there, the route starts from Shanderman and, after passing through several villages, joins a dirt road. Entering the area requires a suitable vehicle or a light walk. The best time to visit is late spring, summer and early autumn, when you can enjoy cool, non-humid air, starry nights and an environment suited to traditional living. Please travel respectfully in nature, stay on marked trails, do not leave rubbish behind and do not damage the vegetation or historical remains in any way.
