Kang Waterfall

Kang Waterfall is located in Razavi Khorasan Province, near the historic terraced village of Kang, a village nicknamed the "Masuleh of Khorasan" because of its distinctive architecture. The area lies about 28 kilometres west of Mashhad, on the southern slopes of the Binalud mountain range, and offers a stunning combination of historic structures and unspoiled nature. The waterfall, about 30 metres high, flows through a lush green valley and, together with the architecture of Kang village, creates a unique setting for travellers.

The waterfall sits in the heart of a valley with green, pleasant scenery; on the way, visitors pass through verdant meadows and small streams. This short trip offers a chance to relax, enjoy nature and photograph beautiful landscapes. The terraced, ancient architecture of Kang village, which is a thousand years old, also creates a unique and poetic scene alongside the fresh, lively nature around the waterfall. The vegetation of the area includes fruit trees such as sweet cherry, sour cherry and apple. The mountain slopes around the village are covered with aromatic and medicinal plants such as borage, flixweed and anemones. These plants bloom in spring and summer and give the area a special beauty. In these seasons, birds such as chukar partridges, nightingales and falcons can also be seen around the waterfall.
