Hello to all my friends. I hope you have a good day. Although we are in the winter season, the weather in the region is not very wintery, and thanks to the previous post that I shared with you, I miss the spring weather. That's why I decided to share with you my memory of climbing to the beautiful Arghvan plain and Cherik Valley, which is one of the tourist attractions around my city.
Remember it well! One of my best memories of climbing in the spring goes back to the green valleys of Arghavan and Cherik. One sunny and pleasant day, we decided to go with my friends to a beautiful valley in the heart of the mountains. We set out early in the morning and the fresh air and the scent of spring flowers felt wonderful. The scenery around us surprised us. Lush trees and colorful flowers covered everywhere. Purple bushes that were seen in abundance in a part of the valley. I had heard many compliments and this beautiful experience should be recorded in my memories. The climbing route was full of challenge and beauty. Every step we took, we felt that we were getting closer to nature. Along the way, we stopped to take pictures of the beautiful scenery and share some moments together.
Let's have a brief biography of the region.
Geographically, Darogar region in Dargaz city, one of Razavi's Khorasan provinces, has many green and beautiful mountains and valleys that have their own attractions every year and every season.
This valley, known as Dareh Cherish or Dasht Arghvan, is located 65 km away from Darghaz city, which is a combination of green lands, purple bushes, towering rocks and high peaks.
After reaching the village which was the entrance of this valley, after parking the vehicle, we equipped ourselves to start climbing. The area was crowded and many people from different cities and even countries were ready to go to the area.
The place you see at the very beginning of the climb is full of purple bushes.
Cherik Valley is a mountainous and border region that is adjacent to Turkmenistan from the other side, so there are no special amenities.
Some of the travelers were staying at the bottom of the valley and in the car parking area because they were not able to climb.
The greatness of this valley had made me disappear and sometimes I was moving at a distance from the children. I registered the photo.
At the end of April and the beginning of May, the same as the end of August and the beginning of April, this area is in its most beautiful state and the purple bushes are covered in pink flowers.
Every part of this valley and mountains that we traveled, we saw many people who were resting or taking photos in different places with groups of two or family members.
Arghwan is the Persian name of this shrub, which is known as Judas Tree in English, and its scientific name is cercis siliquastrum. In terms of height, it may grow up to 12 meters high, but they are usually in the form of shrubs.
We had almost joined the groups of climbers and were moving along with them. According to the slope of the mountains, their movement took the form of a spiral mount, and so beautiful and with backpacks and colorful clothes, the green nature of the area was revealed. They forgave others.
Along the way and in the places where it was possible, I tried to take some artistic photos according to the reflection of the sun, the beautiful angle of the mountains, etc.
The area was really amazing. I would like to ride in a helicopter and take pictures from above and depict the ups and downs of this area.
In some areas where we reached a slightly higher point, we could see a little fog.
As we were going up and down and were with the climbing group, the leader and guide of the group announced that we should reach the area of the mountain known as Damchi for lunch. The path leading to Damchi was a bit difficult and we had to pass through here very carefully.
This is one of the photos that we took from a distance and we had to take a curved path to get there. If you zoom in, you can see the people standing there.
The deep valley that was next to our path didn't allow us to take more photos. We just wanted to reach the place and settle down for lunch and more rest.
In fact, Damchi was a large niche, which got its name from the raindrops falling from its top.
In the past, due to the abundant rains and the nature and climate of that time, water poured down from above this area like showers. It was like a bathroom where people came to take a shower.
And this is a close-up photo of the accommodation of people and climbers.
Everyone found a place to rest so they could continue the rest of the way before dark. We also accompanied them with the plans of the climbing groups on the way back to the slopes of the mountains.
The time we had chosen was average in terms of the number of people, but according to friends, on some days even in every part of the mountain, the crowd was seen.
I hope you have benefited from the pure sense of nature by seeing these pristine pictures and I am very happy to spend some moments with you
Until another blog and another short trip, bye.
