There are a total of 37 large and small springs in this section, the largest of which is called Sarcheshmeh, with a flow rate of 250 liters per second. Thirty-six aqueducts with a total length of 80 km irrigate agricultural fields and orchards. Over 200 agricultural wells and dozens of dolab wells have been identified in this sector.

The 200-meter waterfalls of Rahmatabad, 20 kilometers north of Joyom, are the only waterfalls in this county.[5]
