Sistan Valley is one of the most beautiful and unspoiled areas of Hezar Masjed, and is known as Tofang Darreh. The valley consists of 32 small and large waterfalls, and getting through them requires technical equipment and numerous rappels. One of the valley's special features is that at Waterfall No. 11 you must descend into the water. Because the valley is so narrow, the best time to climb is the dry seasons of the year; if flooding occurs, there is no way to escape.

The valley lies in the Hezar Masjed highlands at an altitude of about 2,000 meters above sea level. The area is covered with juniper forests, and the Idelik River flows through it. The area's pristine, untouched nature, together with the river and forests, gives it a special beauty and has made it one of a kind among natural attractions. Along the route you pass black tents of the nomads, which add to the beauty of the area.

Canyoning in this area must be done with technical equipment. Note that at Waterfall No. 11 the descent must be made into the water, and because the valley is so narrow, the climb should be done in the dry seasons, since in the event of a flood there is no way to escape.
