Sarmorgh Village

Sarmorgh Village is located in Robat Rural District, 15 kilometres from the city of Khorramabad. In winter, the cold weather of the area attracts birds such as chukar partridges and see-see partridges. To the left of the village rise the snow-capped peaks of Sefidkuh, and to the right stands Kamar Siyah mountain, known as Makhmal Kuh ("Velvet Mountain"). The area also has the beautiful Gahvareh and Ababil plains, the latter named as a reminder of the swallows. Further along the route, the Piazeh Gorge, with its waterfalls and multi-tiered pools, offers a pleasant place to rest and swim.

Other natural attractions of the village include the seasonal Bahar Ab spring, Bagh-e Dayi, Du Ruz Nav, Ashkaft (Kolder) Cave and Pir Hasan Ali Hill. The villagers work in livestock farming, agriculture and orchard keeping. Farming in the area has declined from its former prosperity, because nature-loving villagers handed over their lands to the environmental authorities.

The natural areas around Sarmorgh, such as the slopes of Sefidkuh and the Gahvareh Gorge, add to the appeal of a trip to this village. The cool climate, thanks to the nearby high mountains, also creates beautiful and striking scenery after rain. One of the most interesting cultural features of the village is the recitation of the Shahnameh and its local traditions, which, together with the villagers' social solidarity, enrich the cultural life of the region. There are several routes to Qaleh Sangi and Sarmorgh villages, reaching them from different sides of Khorramabad county.
