Hanzak Waterfall is one of the beautiful natural attractions of the Lavasan-e Kuchak area, near the village of Hanzak. It lies about 700 metres north of the Naran neighbourhood, on the road to the villages of Anbaj and Afjeh. Set on the slopes of Mount Poshtak, the waterfall pours 10 to 15 metres down a rocky cliff. In the high-water seasons, especially spring, it creates a captivating, enchanting scene that draws the attention of every nature lover. After tumbling down, the water joins the Afjeh River and flows on towards the Naran neighbourhood and finally to Latyan Dam.

Besides its visual beauty, the waterfall offers visitors a calm and pleasant setting. Its closeness to the main Lavasan road makes it easy to reach, and the short walk to the waterfall is suitable for all ages. The area around the waterfall has good spots for a picnic and a rest, and the village of Hanzak, with its lush garden lanes, is a great place to stroll in unspoiled nature. Especially in spring and summer, the area is a popular destination for nature lovers and anyone seeking peace and quiet in the heart of nature.

To reach the waterfall, take the Lavasan road into the village of Afjeh, then follow a short, easy walk to the waterfall. The best time to visit is from spring to early summer, when the waterfall is full and the weather is pleasant. To protect the natural beauty of the area, visitors are advised to collect their rubbish and to avoid making noise or harming the environment. Following these guidelines helps keep the local ecosystem healthy and makes for a better experience for all visitors.
