Bisheh Waterfall is Iran's 48th National Monument and one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Lorestan Province, with a height of 48 meters and a width of 20 meters. The waterfall is formed by a series of small cascades that spill down through the rock and trees and finally flow into the Sezar River. It lies in the heart of the Zagros Mountains, beside the Tehran–Khuzestan railway and close to Bisheh Station, so every year, in all seasons, it welcomes many domestic travellers.

Bisheh Waterfall is close to vast oak forests and the lovely village of Bisheh, and the railway line running through this unspoiled landscape creates a charming view. The cool, fresh climate of the area, the lush greenery of the trees and the spectacular mountains make this place attractive and well worth a visit. Above the waterfall, opposite the station, there are several springs with abundant water that well up from the mountain, murmur through the middle of the train station and form Bisheh Waterfall.

From the village parking lot, where you can leave your car, it is about a 10-minute easy walk to the waterfall. If you wish, you can use local motorbikes, which will carry you or your belongings to the waterfall. The best time to visit is spring, when the weather is at its best. Autumn is also a good choice, as seeing the waterfall surrounded by colourful autumn trees is beautiful and unique. Swimming in Bisheh Waterfall is prohibited, and there are many signs about this at the site.
