Kureh Bar Wetland

Kureh Bar Wetland is one of Gilan Province's lesser-known natural attractions. It lies in the heart of Kureh Bar village, in Lil Rural District, in the Central District of Lahijan County. The wetland is located along the rural road from Lahijan to Kuhbaneh, Dobaradaran, Ahandan, Darreh Jir and Mazi Zakleh Bar, and is regarded as an unspoiled destination for nature tourism and ecotourism enthusiasts. Kureh Bar village is about 12 kilometres from Lahijan, on the main road to Otaqvar, and can be reached by rural roads.

With its pristine, untouched nature, Kureh Bar Wetland is a suitable habitat for a variety of native and migratory birds. Its diverse vegetation, including reed beds and aquatic plants, creates a calm and charming environment for visitors. Although the area has no amenities such as accommodation or restaurants, this is exactly what has preserved its authenticity and natural beauty. A visit to the wetland offers travellers a unique experience of the peace and silence of nature.

To reach Kureh Bar Wetland, take the Lahijan–Otaqvar road and, after passing through several villages, you will arrive at Kureh Bar village. The best time to visit is spring and summer, when the weather is mild and nature is at its most beautiful. In these seasons, the footpaths and light forest trails around the village are well suited to leisurely walks and exploring. Since there are no amenities in the area, it is recommended to bring the supplies you need, such as water, food and suitable clothing, and to help keep the environment clean.
