Dizbad Village

Dizbad village (Upper Dizbad) lies in Razavi Khorasan Province, in Zebarkhan Rural District of Neyshabur County. It sits on the southern slopes of the Binalud mountain range, about 70 to 75 kilometers from Mashhad. This summer pasture village is built in terraces and stretches from east to west. Thanks to its mountain location, it enjoys a cool, pleasant climate during the warm seasons. Dizbad's population changes noticeably through the year: in spring and summer, when residents return to their orchards, it becomes one of the liveliest villages in the region.

Thanks to its advanced, scientific orchard farming, fertile soil and abundant water resources, the village is regarded as one of Iran's leading examples of organic agriculture. Cherries, plums, apples, walnuts and sour cherries are among the area's main orchard products, grown to a high standard without extensive use of chemicals. Besides its lush greenery and many springs, Dizbad has walking trails, extensive orchards and beautiful terraced landscapes. Historical remains, plentiful springs and rich biodiversity have also made the area a worthwhile destination for nature lovers and for those interested in cultural and nature tourism.

You can reach Dizbad by taking the Mashhad–Neyshabur road and then the side roads leading to Zebarkhan; the village is reached by driving along a mountain road. The best time to visit Dizbad is spring and summer, when nature is at its greenest and the weather is very pleasant for walking and staying overnight. Following the principles of responsible nature tourism, including keeping the environment clean, respecting the local culture, and not damaging vegetation or natural resources, plays an important role in preserving this unique village.
