Seymareh Dam Lake and Tang Kafri(Badreh, Ilam province)

Tang Kafri in Ilam province and near the city of Badreh, has been known for nature lovers and Iran tourists for many years.. Our visit and boating in Seymareh Dam and seeing this beautiful gorge was a continuation of a journey that we passed through Chaharmahal, Bakhtiari and Khuzestan and entered the gates of Ilam province from Poldakhtar.. We had visited the anchor rod and the Black Cow Twin Lake and reached the Seymareh Dam..

Sometimes shaking and getting out of unwanted exhaustion becomes so stretched that our work is delayed until noon.! Early in Nowruz, the noon weather in Darrehshahr and Badreh was a little warm, but it was not annoying. What bothered him was the dust of Iraq, which covered the western skies of the country. What do we humans want from the life of the planet?… The selfishness of the human race has created such conditions in the last 100 years.  

Finally, we went to Seymareh Dam Lake, which we had been waiting to see for several years. On the road from Badreh to Ilam(15 km) At a point where there was no sign except at the end of a large bend, we left the road and entered a 4 km rocky ground. At the end of the road, without a special place to park, everyone found a place for themselves and left the car.. We were facing the infidels. Where the boat station was on the dam. They had set up a big tent and someone was sitting at a table issuing a boat bill. Many people gathered around him and thought what to do. There were almost a lot of passengers and tourists. The price of boats was also impressive. A simple tour in Nowruz 1400, 400 thousand Tomans and if someone wanted to see more parts of the lake, this tour will cost about 700 thousand Tomans.. I do not know whether the boatmen are here all year round or are they just Nowruz days or such holidays?

 In the middle of the day it was a bad time for photography. In addition, the sky of Ilam was full of dust and made it difficult to breathe. As soon as the boat set off, it had to cross the Kafri Strait to reach a large part of the lake. I think it was one of the most beautiful places there. However, we wanted to see all its sights now that we are here. After Tang Kafri, the boatman went fast to the left, where after about a quarter, he approached Tang-e Baranjan..

After that, seeing the generals of Baranjan, he returned with the same speed and passed an infidel to reach the beginning of the narrow path of Rava Rawa and the Pigeon Cave.. It was an interesting atmosphere. Of course, there was no cave and I could see the rocks that had holes. It was more along the way than stopping and overthrowing. There was a small waterfall somewhere that cost us a fortune to see!

 The high speed of the boat and the windy day and the throwing of water diminished the pleasure and tranquility, but overall it was a good tour on the dam lake.. There were interesting erosive layers along the mountain walls. Migratory birds such as gray herons were seen on the lake. After returning, we had lunch by the lake. We were there when it was crowded and I found out that a young boy had been bitten by a scorpion. I went forward and tied his forearm with a shawl and told him to leave soon. I don't think he was in danger, but he could not be in danger. Going to a health center is always the best way. Especially where Badra was close. I have told my fellow travelers many times not to move rocks in the ground. Below each may be a scorpion or other creature. Otherwise, what does the scorpion have in our day?. If you want to remove the free stone, give it to the wrong shoe first and then remove it. A few days before this incident, we wanted to collect stones near the Karun Dam and around the Helen forests to entertain Sahand, which was the case.. Under each millipede was a scorpion. We were laughing. We quickly returned to our seats and said, well, let's go to another hobby.

Seeing Seymareh Dam takes about two hours and can be combined in one day with seeing Fennel Strait and Shahr Valley in one day.. After that, we went to the fennel gorge and went up to the fields and around the oak forests of Kolem village to spend the night.. Tang Fennel was on the side of the road and was naturally crowded during the holidays, but it is worth seeing and it cost me as much as burning a mobile phone, which of course was due to my carelessness and slipping in the pool..
