Tang-e Mortines Waterfall

Tang-e Mortines Waterfall is one of the most beautiful natural attractions in Ghasreghand County, Sistan and Baluchestan Province. It lies in the Mortines area, about 10 kilometers northwest of the town of Sarbuk, along the Ghasreghand–Nikshahr transit road. These tiered waterfalls have formed in a lush valley surrounded by tall cliffs and mountain scenery, and they are fed by several permanent springs. Thanks to the constant flow of water, even in years of low rainfall, Tang-e Mortines stays green and fresh for most of the year, making it one of the most valuable natural attractions in the south of the province. Date palm groves, fruit orchards and untouched nature reveal a different side of Sistan and Baluchestan, one that is less well known.

The main features of Tang-e Mortines Waterfall are its series of tiered cascades, clear natural pools and peaceful atmosphere. After flowing down the rock walls, the water forms pools that are suitable for resting and swimming, the largest of which is about 100 meters across. The sound of water striking the rocks, the natural vegetation, the surrounding palm groves and the mountain views have made this area a popular destination for nature lovers, photographers and adventure seekers. Although the site is still unknown to many travellers, it has great potential to become one of the province's most important nature tourism destinations.

To reach Tang-e Mortines Waterfall, take the Ghasreghand–Nikshahr transit road into Sarbuk District. The waterfall is about 17 kilometers from Sarbuk, and vehicles can drive as far as the area's seasonal dam. From there, the route continues on foot or by motorcycle until you reach the tiered waterfalls of Tang-e Mortines. The best times to visit are spring, early summer and autumn, when the waterfall carries more water and the weather is more pleasant for outdoor activities. While visiting, please follow responsible nature tourism practices, such as not leaving litter, avoiding damage to the vegetation and keeping the natural pools clean. These play an important role in protecting this pristine environment.
