Lamalich Waterfall

Lamalich Waterfall is one of the pristine natural attractions of Golestan Province. It lies south of Sarkalateh Kharabshahr village, 12 km southwest of the city of Kordkuy and 39 km from Gorgan. The waterfall plunges 81 meters from a high cliff into a deep valley. Malich trees (also spelled Malij or Malach) grow along the path of the falling water, and their name has been added to the name of the waterfall.

The area around Lamalich Waterfall is covered with dense, lush forest, where you can see maple and oak trees as well as evergreen plants such as chelem. Along the access route to the waterfall there are tall rock walls, some of which rise to more than 20 meters. There is also a smaller waterfall along the way, which is well worth a visit.

To reach Lamalich Waterfall, you need to pass through Sarkalateh village and then hike for about 4 to 5 hours. The trail is steep and sometimes difficult, and it requires suitable equipment and the company of a local guide. The best time to visit the waterfall is spring and summer, when the water flow is at its peak and the scenery of the area is at its most beautiful.
