Vazan-Bon Waterfall

Vazan-Bon Waterfall is located in Shaft County, Gilan Province, in the Gasht-Rudkhan Protected Area and the Ahmad Sargurab district, near the village of Sefid Mazgi. Set amid the Hyrcanian forests with a pleasant climate, the waterfall is estimated to be about 20 meters high. The area around the waterfall is covered with alder trees, which provide a natural canopy and a calm, delightful setting for visitors. Every year, the area attracts thousands of visitors in search of pristine nature, clean air and peaceful scenery.

Vazan-Bon Waterfall is fed by a clear, fresh river that originates in the highlands of Imamzadeh Eshaq; for this reason, in the high-water seasons it looks even more beautiful and majestic. Khoshk Darreh, also known as the Ganjar stone valley, is another striking natural feature of the area and lies along the route of Vazan-Bon Waterfall. On the valley floor, layered rocks, small and large springs and blooming wildflowers create a unique and enchanting landscape that captivates the soul of every nature lover. The area is still not widely known, which has helped keep its nature pristine and untouched and made it one of the ideal destinations for quiet, peaceful nature trips.

To reach the waterfall, first head to Shaft County, pass through the village of Ganjar and continue along the Shalma road toward Imamzadeh Eshaq, then take the dirt road leading to the Sefid Mazgi area. Part of the route can be driven, and then an easy walk of about half an hour through the unspoiled forest will bring you to your destination. The best time to visit the waterfall is from early Tir (late June) to autumn; in these seasons there is plenty of water to see, and the pleasant weather and peaceful setting are ready to welcome visitors. In the low-water months, the flow will be weaker. For responsible nature travel, we recommend that you pick up your litter, stay on the trail, and be aware of possible hazards such as slipping or unstable rocks.
