Nian village in the southwest of Kermanshah province in the northwestern unit of the folded Zagros has a very rich and diverse geomorphological heritage and has the potential to attract tourists.

The aim of this study is to promote the rich geomorphological heritage of this region; therefore, the identification, selection and quantitative evaluation of geomorphosites in the region have done. The results indicate that there are 51 potential geomorphosites in the region, of which 12 geomorphosites have a high potential for the development of geotourism. The results showed that the study area has significant potential for the development of geotourism and geodiversity can considered as an important source for local and regional development. The new information presented in this study is very important for the development of geotourism activities in Nian village and can help planners and officials in developing appropriate plans for sustainable development of the region.
