If so, Towbiroun Valley in Khuzestan Province is the perfect destination for you.
Towbiroun Valley is located just 20 kilometers from Dezful in Khuzestan Province. Traveling to this area will be an unforgettable experience of valley exploration for nature and adventure enthusiasts who love to explore unknown places. As soon as you reach Towbiroun, you will be amazed by its impressive beauty that will leave you in awe.
The valley has a pleasant climate with a surprising cool breeze, which is hard to believe in Khuzestan Province. It took thousands of years for nature, fog, sun, and sky to come together to create such a mythical place. This valley is a result of erosion from seasonal rains in higher areas and rapid water flow in mountains and hills.
During dry seasons, the valley drains underground water flows, and fresh water seeps from the walls and bottom of the valley, in some parts. Its thin walls with a high altitude reaching over a hundred meters, and clusters of grape and fig trees, waterfalls, and pools have given the valley a special beauty.
Despite Dezful’s high temperature, which is usually above 40° Celsius, the cool breeze in this valley gives a special tranquility to guests. Sometimes the temperature in this valley drops to 25 degrees or less, enhancing the experience of visitors.
Towbiroun Valley unleashes the mystical world of nature, which is full of surprises and unusual beauty. A trip to this valley will undoubtedly be one of the most memorable trips of your life.
Chal Kandi Valley, situated between the northern region of Dezful and the eastern area of Andimeshk, is another extraordinary valley that will undoubtedly leave you in awe. The harmonious interplay of the river and rocks creates a captivating spectacle. Serving as an oasis of cool, pleasant weather amidst the scorching heat of southern Iran, Chal Kandi Valley acts as the outlet for water from the Dez Dam.
With its unparalleled characteristics, the locals affectionately refer to this area as Cham Sabz, meaning “Green Cham” (‘cham’ means green in the Lori dialect), owing to the abundance of lush vegetation and the vibrant hues of its waters.
Chal Kandi stands out as one of the lesser-explored areas along the Dez River, boasting diverse flora and fauna.
While the eye-catching rocks, stones, and the gracefully flowing colored water are mesmerizing, it is important not to overlook the presence of the surrounding bushes, trees, and grasslands. Within the crystal-clear waters, various species of fish and crabs can be spotted, adding to the allure of this enchanting place.
The tranquility encompassing the river, its pristine natural surroundings, and the undisturbed meadows, marshes and grasslands offer visitors a serene experience.
In the past, local inhabitants carved resting places resembling caves into the rocks, which have now become attractions in the region. These small chambers, available in various sizes, further enhance the appeal of the area.
Chal Kandi Valley is renowned as one of the primary tourist destinations and recreational spots for the local community during summer, providing a refreshing escape from the intense heat of the city. Here, the conditions for swimming, boating, and fishing are ideal, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the beauty of nature while engaging in joyful activities.
