Sooeh Chaleh Summer Pasture is one of the unspoiled natural attractions of Gilan Province, located 30–33 kilometres south of Masal. This mountainous area lies on the slopes of the Talesh Mountains, just 4 kilometres above the famous Olsbelangah Summer Pasture, and with its colourful wooden houses and misty landscapes it is often described as an "Alps-like place."
The Sooeh Chaleh area is covered with lush meadows and temperate mixed forests, offering visitors wildflowers, springs and the morning "sea of clouds" phenomenon. Its name comes from two words: "Sooeh," meaning golpar (Persian hogweed), and "Chaleh," meaning hollow or pit. The name was given because of the abundant golpar growing in the area and the bowl-like shape of the pasture when seen from a distance. With its pristine nature, clean air and tranquil scenery, Sooeh Chaleh has become a popular destination for nature lovers.
To reach Sooeh Chaleh, take the Qazvin–Rasht road towards Fuman, Sowme'eh Sara and then Masal. After passing Olsbelangah Summer Pasture, a drive of about 10 minutes (or a brisk walk for experienced hikers) along a dirt road with beautiful views will bring you to your destination. The best time to visit is from late spring to early autumn; in summer the weather is mild and the air rich in oxygen, while in spring the area is covered in clouds and mist.
