Jostan Waterfalls

The Jostan Waterfalls are located in Alborz Province, near the village of Jostan and the Taleqan Valley. They lie along the Jostan River, about 12 kilometres from the centre of Taleqan, in a lush mountain valley. To reach them, drive through Jostan village and continue along the dirt track beside the river until you arrive at the Davazdah Kaseh (Twelve Bowls) Waterfall.

The Davazdah Kaseh Waterfall of Jostan descends in steps along a valley about 3 kilometres long. The waterfalls are fed by melting winter snow and surface runoff, and they flow at their fullest in spring, especially in the months of Farvardin and Ordibehesht. During this period, many small and large waterfalls appear along the valley, giving the area a unique beauty.

The best time to visit the waterfalls is early spring, when the water flow is at its peak and the surrounding nature is in full bloom. Because the area is unspoiled, facilities are limited, so we recommend bringing essentials such as water, food and suitable footwear.
