Rivash (Persian: ريوش) is a city in the Central District of Kuhsorkh County, Razavi Khorasan province, Iran, serving as capital of both the county and the district. As a village, it was the capital of Barkuh Rural District until its capital was transferred to the village of Ivar. According to the evidence, this area was inhabited before the advent of Islam, and due to the fact that the old road of the southern cities of Razavi Khorasan to Tehran passed through this area, it has been more prosperous in the past. One of the most important historical events is the Mongol invasion, which after the occupation of Nishapur, due to its impassability and the large number of snakes in the area, Mongol horses and soldiers could not pass through this area and escaped its bite. The village of Rivash was converted to a city in 1999. At the time of the 2006 National Census, the city's population was 4,610 in 1,277 households, when it was capital of the former Kuhsorkh District in Kashmar County. The following census in 2011 counted 5,762 people in 1,597 households. The 2016 census measured the population of the city as 5,687 people in 1,701 households. In 2019, the district was separated from the county in the establishment of Kuhsorkh County, and Rivash was transferred to the new Central District as the county's capital. The climate of Rivash, is temperate and due to its lush nature, vegetation, dense trees, river, south and west of the city, it has a cool climate in summers and very cold winters.
