Beranjeh Waterfall

In the heart of the soaring Zagros Mountains, in the Shulabad area of Aligudarz County, flows a stunning and pristine waterfall known as Beranjeh Waterfall, or "Taf". This natural wonder, with a height of about 750 meters, holds the title of Iran's tallest seasonal waterfall. The waterfall has three tiers and originates on the slopes of Mount Beranjeh. Its breathtaking beauty, especially in spring when the water flow peaks, captivates every visitor and has made it a unique destination for nature lovers and experienced mountaineers.

The area around Beranjeh Waterfall is rich in diverse plant and animal species. Natural forests with walnut, fig and wild pear trees, hawthorn, blackberry and a variety of medicinal plants grow around the waterfall. The region is also home to animals such as bears, wolves, wild boars, partridges, hares and crows, which makes it highly valuable ecologically as well. The view of the cliffs, the water cascading from the heights, the birdsong and the cool mountain air offer visitors an enchanting blend of tranquility and adventure in the heart of Lorestan's nature.

To reach the waterfall, you first need to travel to Aligudarz County and then take a mountain road toward Pir Imam Village in the Shulabad area. From there, a fairly difficult hiking trail about two kilometers long lies ahead, and walking it requires physical fitness and suitable mountaineering equipment. Like other natural attractions, the Beranjeh Waterfall in Shulabad has its own unique beauty in every season of the year, and depending on visitors' preferences it can be visited at any time of year. In early spring and late winter, the rivers around the waterfall carry more water and flow more fiercely than at other times, and their beauty is doubled by the lushness of the surrounding forests. Overall, however, the best time to travel to this region and visit the Beranjeh Waterfall in Shulabad is spring, especially the month of Ordibehesht (late April to late May).
