Tang-e Karu

Tang-e Karu, also known as "Karru", is one of the lesser-known natural attractions of Kerman Province. The gorge lies south of Rabor County, about 20 kilometres from the town centre. To reach it, you need to follow the dirt road to the village of Padom-abad. About 500 metres long, Tang-e Karu sits within the Zagros Mountains, and thanks to its distinctive geographical setting it offers pristine, untouched natural scenery.

At the entrance to the gorge you will see natural pools known as "Golam", whose clear, transparent water gives the area a special charm. As you move forward, the gorge narrows, and huge boulders and tall rock walls create a breathtaking view. Further along the route, several waterfalls of different heights flow one after another, shaped by the erosion of the rocks over time. Together with the varied vegetation and the soothing sound of the water, these waterfalls create a peaceful and unique atmosphere for visitors.

To reach Tang-e Karu, head from the town of Rabor towards the village of Padom-abad; after about 20 kilometres on a dirt road, you will arrive at the entrance of the gorge. The best time to visit is spring and early summer, when the waterfalls are at their fullest and the landscape is at its most beautiful. When visiting Tang-e Karu, it is essential to follow the principles of responsible nature tourism, such as keeping the environment clean, not harming plants and wildlife, and respecting local culture and traditions.
