The Badab Soort Natural Spring is located south of Sari and is

considered one of the most incredible sights of its region. It is at a

height of 1,841 meters above sea level and just west of the village or

Orost. It is believed that the Spring was created during the Paleocene

Era and at the same time as the latest folds in the Alborz mountain range.

 

 

The Badab Soort Spring is actually comprised of two separate springs

with completely different colored and scented water. The first spring

contains very salty water that gathers in a small natural pool. During

the summers locals swim in the pool and believe its water is useful

for curing back aches, rheumatism and skin diseases. The second spring

has a sour taste and is predominately orange mainly due to the large

iron oxide sediments at its outlet. Over the course of thousands of

years the water from these two springs emanating from the mountain

range have combined and resulted in a number of orange, red and yellow

colored pools shaped as a naturally formed staircase. The surrounding

vegetation to the north consists of pine trees forests while to the

east we mainly see short trees and shrubs. To the west are rock quarries.

Nicely lit lead in and it looks even better when viewed at full size.  This is a great location and having seen other landscapes from Iran I would love to go there. Pity the country is closed to westerners.
