Cheshmeh Kileh River
The Cheshmeh Kileh River is located in the northern part of Iran. It flows into the Caspian Sea at Tonekabon city.
Its headwaters comprise two forested valleys, Do-Hezar ("Two Rivers") valley and Se-Hezar ("Three Rivers") valley, both on the northern slopes of the Alborz mountain range. The outflows from these valleys have a confluence at a place called Chaldehra or Chaldarreh, about 24 kilometres (15 mi) south of Tonekabon, and this forms the Cheshmeh Kileh proper.
