Damash Valley

Damash Valley in Siahu, also known as Jamash, lies 80 kilometres north of Bandar Abbas, among the mountains of the Homag area. Mount Homag, part of the southern Zagros range and the highest peak in Hormozgan Province at 3,267 metres above sea level, is the main source of the river. The valley is one of the sights of Bandar Abbas. It lies on the road linking Bandar Abbas to Sirjan, in Siahu, and along the beautiful side road to the village of Sikhoran.

The valley lies in a mild, humid area, and its climate stays like this all year round. Several streams run through the valley and, after joining one another, form a river called the Jalabi. After completing its course, this river finally flows into the Persian Gulf.

Spring is the best time to visit Damash Valley. If you do not mind the heat and can handle the scorching sun, you can also enjoy the valley's beauty in summer. In autumn Hormozgan becomes cooler, and Damash offers favourable conditions for tourism.
