Deylaman, a serene highland village tucked into the Alborz Mountains of Gilan Province, is one of northern Iran’s most breathtaking natural escapes. Sitting at around 2,000 meters above sea level, it offers cool, refreshing air even in summer, making it a favorite retreat for those seeking peace, greenery, and panoramic views. The landscape is a painter’s dream—rolling meadows, misty forests, and cascading waterfalls that change with the seasons. In spring and summer, wildflowers blanket the hillsides, while autumn ignites the trees in fiery hues, and winter transforms the region into a snowy wonderland.
But Deylaman is more than just a pretty face—it’s steeped in history and culture. Named after the ancient Deylamites, a fierce and independent Iranian tribe, the village still echoes with the legacy of its past through traditional stone-and-wood homes and nearby historical sites like Kuti Castle and Ti Ti Caravanserai. Visitors can hike, camp, explore caves, or simply enjoy the hospitality of locals and the taste of fresh dairy, honey, and Gilaki cuisine. Whether you're chasing adventure or tranquility, Deylaman offers a rare blend of untouched nature and timeless heritage.
