Stars valley

Stars valley

Do you want to touch the stars? OK, let’s go to stars valley. Stars valley which is named after a fallen star by local people, is one of the most beautiful displays of erosion on the vast island of Qeshm.
Stars Valley site is made up of soft sediment layers, erosion mechanisms and weathering. On the other hand, emergence of masses like needle columns, vertical walls, bridges, and various cavities have added to its natural attraction. As a result of the softness of the various layers forming these natural shapes, it is not unheard of for the overall shape of the area to slightly vary after rainfall.
Although this site is located out of the Qeshm Geo-park area, considering the region’s uniqueness and its specific Geo-morphological structure, it is affirmed by UNESCO as one of the main sites of the Geo-park.

This lagoon is one of the nicest tourist attractions in Iran, located 7 km from Astara near the Rasht to Astara road. Being close to the road, varied natural beauty spots, lush farms and jungles all around, make this lagoon all the more pleasant. The Western side of the lagoon is covered by trees and verdant plants. On the Eastern side, floating trees have created a notable landscape which becomes an outstanding retreat in Spring and Summer for travelers.
