Sisangan Forest

Sisangan Forest is one of the most beautiful and best-known forest and coastal parks in Mazandaran Province, and a natural example of the lowland forests of northern Iran. The forest has several outstanding features, including its location right beside the sea and its large size. Oak trees with trunks more than two meters in diameter, maple trees, and woody and herbaceous shrubs are among its unrivaled sights. Sisangan Forest lies close to the shore, separated from the beach only by the width of a road, which is why it is also called Sisangan Beach. This forest park is a four-season natural attraction, with unique qualities throughout the year that can captivate travellers.

Sisangan Forest Park is located 27 kilometers along the Nowshahr to Nur road in Mazandaran Province. It is bounded by the Caspian Sea to the north, the village of Salahaddin Kala to the east, the village of Tuskatak to the west, and the Alborz mountain range to the south. Situated along the northern strip of Iran, the forest is an attractive destination for nature lovers and beach recreation thanks to its special location and its closeness to the sea.

Besides its natural beauty, this forest park offers visitors considerable amenities and services. At Sisangan, visitors can make use of gazebos, restaurants, cafes, separate beaches for men and women, restrooms, and football and beach volleyball fields. Other facilities in the park include shops, a picnic area, a children's playground, a horse-riding area, a coffee shop, a traditional teahouse, and the permanent natural resources exhibition building. A variety of recreational activities, including boating and a sea shuttle, are also available to visitors. For those who enjoy thrilling activities, the large Sisangan go-kart track will be an exciting and memorable experience.
