Mamraz Lake, known as the Lake of ghosts, is a small lake in the heart of the forested heights between Nowshahr and Noor in Mazandaran province.
This small lake is swampy and trees with broken trunks have emerged from the water of the lake. The roots of the trees on the forested shore of the lake protrude from the soil and give the trees a special and ghost-like state.
The combination of these features has made the lake swampy and mysterious and looks like a place of ghosts.
You will see colorful and beautiful mushrooms on the rotten and mossy bodies of fallen trees in this area.
The lakes and forests of this area are among the protected areas, and for this reason, the lake and the surrounding forests have remained largely pristine. The seclusion of this area on the depths of the forest has also helped to make it scary.
To access this lake, it is better to get help from GPS. A side road that stretches south in the middle of Nowshahr to Noor road, between the villages of Salaheddin Kola and Vanoosh, will take you to the entrance of the protected area of this area after three kilometers. Tourists are usually allowed to enter the area. After that, you have to move 10 kilometers in a dirt and rugged but beautiful forest road to reach the Mamraz lake signpost. After that, you will reach the lake with a half-hour walk.
