Bar Waterfall

Bar Waterfall, in the village of Bar in Nishapur County, Razavi Khorasan Province, is a scenic natural attraction in the heart of the Binalud mountain range. The village lies on the slopes of the Binalud Mountains, and thanks to its unspoiled mountain scenery and its cool, delightful climate, it welcomes many nature lovers and tourists every year.

With its tiered structure, Bar Waterfall flows for about 300 metres through limestone rocks and an open valley, creating a calm and beautiful blend of stone and water. The surrounding vegetation includes orchards of walnut, apple, peach, pear, apricot and plum, along with shrubs and wild plants that make the area lush and refreshing.

To reach the waterfall, travel from Mashhad to Nishapur, then continue to the town of Bar. After several kilometres on a dirt road and a stop at the start of the valley, an easy 30 to 40 minute walk along a wooded valley trail will take you to the waterfall. The best time to visit is spring and summer, when the waterfall carries more water and the surrounding nature is green and mild. In winter the trail is slippery and the waterfall is weaker. When visiting this unspoiled spot, we recommend that you stick to safe routes, take your litter with you and avoid harming nature.
