Shandarman Summer Pastures

Shandarman summer pasture, set in the green Alenzeh plain, is one of the most attractive and best-known destinations in Masal County and the Shandarman area. Besides its pristine nature and mountain views, it is known as a suitable place for nomads and local herders. In fact, the climate and geographical position of the area make it well suited to both summer pasture (yaylaq) and winter pasture (qeshlaq) use in different seasons of the year.

On holidays, Shandarman becomes one of the busiest spots, and many people, especially locals from Masal and other parts of Gilan Province, travel here to relax and enjoy nature. The large presence of local visitors on public holidays gives the area a special atmosphere and clearly shows the temporary bustle of life in the heart of the mountains. The vegetation of the Shandarman summer pastures includes lush rangelands, scattered forests, native trees and mountain plants, which are at their most beautiful in spring and summer.

To reach the Shandarman summer pastures, head northwest from the town of Talesh until you arrive at this group of pastures. The routes are rural and mountain roads, which are in their best condition for visiting in spring and summer. Following the principles of responsible nature tourism, including not damaging the environment and keeping the area clean, is especially important for preserving the beauty and health of this region.
