A comprehensive understanding of geomorphodiversity and geomorphological heritage is crucial for their use, conservation, and management. Therefore, this paper aims to assess the geomorphodiversity and geomorphological heritage in an integrated approach for the management of Damavand volcano and its surroundings. Damavand is the highest mountain in Iran and the highest volcano in Asia. In this research, the analyses were performed in five steps: (1) the assessment of geomorphodiversity; (2) the identification and selection of geomorphosites; (3) the assessment of geomorphosites; (4) the comparison and synthesis of results; (5) the determination of suitable visit routes. In these steps, the geomorphodiversity index elaborated by Melelli et al. in 2017 and a method developed by Reynard et al. in 2016 were used, with extensive fieldwork. The results showed the areas with high and very high geomorphodiversity values provide a rich set of different types of landforms and processes. Also, the intrinsic value of 66.66% of selected geomorphosites is more than 50 (from 100) and only 33.33% have a value of less than 50, while their use and management status are unsuitable (75%) and very unsuitable (5.6%). Moreover, where the value of geomorphodiversity is higher, the number of geomorphosites is also higher, but there is no correlation between the level of geomorphodiversity value and the level of the intrinsic value of the geomorphosites. Nevertheless, the Damavand volcano needs special attention for geotourism promotion, scientific and educational uses, world heritage, or geopark. Finally, the development of an integrated management plan to conservation is necessary. In this regards, the comprehensive assessment of geomorphodiversity and geomorphological heritage has been implemented as a first step in starting management and conservation strategies. Also, the suitable visit routes have been proposed as one of the management measures.

全面了解地貌多样性和地貌遗产对于它们的使用，保护和管理至关重要。因此，本文旨在以一种综合的方法来评估达马万德火山及其周围地区的地貌多样性和地貌遗产。达马万德（Damavand）是伊朗最高的山脉，也是亚洲最高的火山。在这项研究中，分析分五个步骤进行：（1）地貌多样性的评估；（2）地貌岩的识别与选择；（3）地貌评价；（4）结果的比较与综合；（5）确定合适的参观路线。在这些步骤中，Melelli等人阐述了地貌多样性指数。Reynard等人在2017年开发了一种方法。在2016年使用，并进行了广泛的实地考察。结果表明，具有较高和非常高的地貌多样性的区域提供了丰富的一组不同类型的地貌和过程。此外，选定的66.66％的变质岩的内在价值大于50（从100），只有33.33％的内在价值小于50，而其使用和管理状况则不合适（75％）且非常不合适（5.6％） 。此外，在地貌多样性值较高的地方，地貌岩石的数量也较高，但是地貌多样性值的水平与地貌特征的内在价值的水平之间没有相关性。尽管如此，达马万德火山仍需要特别注意以促进地质旅游，科学和教育用途，世界遗产或地质公园。最后，有必要制定一项关于养护的综合管理计划。在这点上，作为开始管理和保护战略的第一步，已经对地貌多样性和地貌遗产进行了综合评估。另外，已经提出了合适的访问路线作为管理措施之一。
