Kashit Waterfall is located in Kashit District, in Golbaf County, Kerman Province. The 3-kilometre Kashit Valley is full of palm groves and fruit trees, and its deep walls are covered with moss and a type of fern that grows beside the waterfalls, creating a beautiful landscape. A notable feature of the area is a 12-metre waterfall that pours into a basin the locals call "the sea". The water of these waterfalls is fresh. The waterfall has formed a large natural pool covering 600 square metres. The pool is very deep, and no attempt has yet been made to measure its depth.

The best time to visit Kashit Waterfall in Kerman Province is spring and early summer. In spring, especially in Farvardin and Ordibehesht, the mild weather and the full flow of the waterfall, fed by winter and spring rainfall, give the area a special beauty. In early Tir the heat is bearable, but as midsummer approaches temperatures rise sharply and visiting is less recommended. Autumn also has pleasant weather, but because of reduced rainfall the waterfall carries less water. In winter, the cold and icy trails make visiting the area difficult, and the waterfall may be dry or low on water.

Because there is no mobile phone coverage, and because of the risk of falling from cliffs and the presence of venomous insects and nocturnal animals, it is best to leave the area before sunset. Also, do not dive into the waterfall's natural lake. Camping is not recommended in this area, but if you intend to stay overnight, be sure to travel in a group and with a guide. Given the possible risks and threats in the nature of this area, for a safe nature trip it is essential to avoid travelling alone and to visit the waterfall only with full equipment and a local guide. There are no facilities for tourists beside Kashit Waterfall, so it is best to bring complete equipment and essential supplies with you. For more amenities, you can go to Kashit Village, which is not far from the waterfall.
