Mansour Waterfall

Mansour Waterfall is located in Qazvin Province, about 5 kilometres southwest of Mansour village in Avaj County. It has formed among tall rocky cliffs, along one of the branches of the region's river. This mountainous area, with its pristine landscapes and a blend of natural and cultural features such as an imamzadeh and a hosseiniyeh, offers an ideal setting for nature lovers.

The waterfall is estimated to be about 7 metres high, measured from the riverbed. Its cool water tumbles down through the rocks and mountain stones, creating a spectacular and soothing view. The waterfall is surrounded by tall cliffs and mountains, and native trees, especially willow species, grow among them and give the place a special freshness. The permanent river in this area has also shaped diverse habitats and played an important role in the creation and survival of the surrounding human settlements.

To reach Mansour Waterfall, take the main Qazvin-Hamadan road toward Arvan Bridge, then pass through the villages of Arvan, Ghuzlu, Naqqash and Niyaraj until you reach Mansour village. This road is paved, so getting to the village is easy. Once you reach the village, a walk of about 5 kilometres along the river will take you to Mansour Waterfall. The best time to visit is spring and summer, when the water flow is at its fullest and the surrounding nature is at its most beautiful. The native trees and natural scenery around the waterfall give visitors a delightful nature-travel experience. Visitors are asked not to leave litter or damage the pristine environment, so that this beauty is preserved.
