Abgarmeh Waterfall

Abgarmeh Waterfall, also known as Cham-Chit Waterfall because of its proximity to the village of Cham-Chit, is located 23 kilometers southwest of the city of Dorud in Lorestan Province. The waterfall, about 20 meters high, plunges down from the rocks of the Zagros and lies next to the Sezar River.

This tiered waterfall has several natural pools, and its cool, clear water is especially inviting in the warm season. The surrounding vegetation includes walnut, fig, grape, willow and plane trees and brambles, which make the valley lush and pleasant. Access is by narrow mountain roads and by rail (Qarun and Cham-Chit stations), and reaching the waterfall requires a moderately demanding walk of about one hour from the foot of the cliff.

The route can be reached via the Pir Abdollah road or the Dorud railway line, followed by a short hike of about half an hour to the waterfall. In some places the slope is steep and the path is slippery, so suitable footwear is essential. The best time to visit is from early Farvardin to Aban, because the vegetation, water flow and air quality are at their best during this period. Nature lovers are encouraged to help preserve the beauty and the health of the area's ecosystem by cleaning up and collecting litter.
