Pir Morad Spring

Pir Morad Spring is one of the natural attractions of Najafabad County in Isfahan Province, located in the high northern part of the county. Set among mountain slopes in a peaceful environment, the spring enjoys a pleasant climate and a landscape quite different from the surrounding urban areas, thanks to its elevation. Its cool, clear water wells up from the ground and flows a short distance through rocks and vegetation, giving the area a lovely character and making it a good destination for nature lovers who want to escape the crowds of the city.

In the past, Pir Morad Spring fell into poor condition and became polluted because of the carelessness of some visitors and a lack of proper care. However, in 1393 (2014–2015) a group of nature and environment enthusiasts worked together to restore the spring. Small pools built around the spring helped bring the flow of water back into order and gave this natural area new life. Today, the slopes around the spring, with their seasonal vegetation, natural rocks and mountain views, offer a pleasant setting for walking, easy hiking, photography and relaxing in nature. The spring has water all year round, and in rainy seasons the greenery around it becomes even more striking.

To reach Pir Morad Spring, head to the north of Najafabad County and, once you arrive in the mountainous part of the area, cover part of the route on foot. The route to the spring follows mountain paths with a gentle gradient and requires moderate physical fitness and suitable hiking footwear. The best time to visit is spring and early autumn, when the weather is more pleasant and the vegetation of the area is at its most beautiful. When visiting Pir Morad Spring, avoid polluting the water, damaging the vegetation, leaving litter or altering the natural environment, so that this precious spring is preserved for travellers and future generations.
