Elird Village

Elird is one of the beautiful villages of Mazandaran Province, located in Garmab Rural District, Chahardangeh District, Sari County. The village lies about 45 kilometres south of Sari and 25 kilometres from the town of Kiasar. With a population of fewer than 200 people, Elird is one of the lesser-known villages, but with its pristine, untouched nature it is a good destination for those interested in rural tourism and nature travel.

The nature of Elird, with its dense forests, rushing rivers and mountain views, offers visitors a calm and enchanting setting. Thanks to its particular geographical position, the village is a suitable habitat for a variety of native plants and animals. In recent years, with the reopening of the Shohada-ye Elird primary school in Mehr 1397 (autumn 2018), the village has seen progress in education and culture. Thanks to its geographical location and favourable natural conditions, Elird offers its residents a simple village life in an atmosphere full of tranquillity and close to nature. These qualities have made Elird a pleasant place for those who want to escape the crowds of the city and experience life in the heart of nature.

You can reach Elird via the Sari–Kiasar road and then along side roads leading to the 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 easy forest trails around the village are suitable for leisurely walks and exploring. Since there are no amenities in the area, it is recommended that you bring the supplies you need before travelling, such as water, food and suitable clothing, and that you take care to keep the environment clean.
