Course
The Shahrood originates on the slopes of the Takht-e Suleyman Massif at 4850 m. (36°22′N 50°58′E). The Taliqan and Alamut rivers conjoin to form the Shahrood river.
It then flows westward through the southern Alborz mountain range to its confluence with the Sefid River. It is a right-hand tributary of the Sefid River, which then flows north through the Alborz into the Caspian Sea.
The Shahrood is about 175 kilometres (109 mi) long.
