Sutehdeh Forest Park

Sutehdeh Forest Park is located in Golestan Province, in Bandar-e Gaz County, near the historic village of Sutehdeh. The park lies about 14 km from Bandar-e Gaz and 11 km from Kordkuy, and is reached by a beautiful forest road. The village of Sutehdeh, more than 900 years old, sits among dense forests next to the Caspian Sea. Because of its unique geographic position, it overlooks the sea to the north and vast forests to the south.

With its unspoiled natural setting, Sutehdeh Forest Park is one of the most popular destinations for nature lovers and tourists in Golestan Province. The park has crystal-clear springs, diverse vegetation and scenic views, and welcomes many visitors in spring and summer. However, in the second half of the year, because of heavy rainfall and the narrowness of the road, visiting this area is not recommended.

To reach Sutehdeh Forest Park, take the road from Kordkuy toward Bandar-e Gaz, pass through the village of Gol Afra and Baghu Forest Park, and continue to the village of Sutehdeh. From there, a short drive brings you into the forest park. The best time to visit is spring and summer, when the weather is mild and nature is at its most beautiful. When visiting this area, following the principles of responsible nature tourism, such as collecting your litter and respecting the environment, is essential to preserving this natural treasure.
