Gereshk

Grishk is at an elevation of approximately 817 m (2,680 ft) above sea level. It is located about an hour's drive northeast of Lashkargah where the Kandahar–Herat Highway passes over the Helmand River, some 120 km (75 mi) northwest of Kandahar and about the same distance southeast of Delaram. Upstream lies the Kajaki Dam which diverts water to the Boghra Irrigation Canal, an essential infrastructure for the region's crops. Grishk Dam is also nearby. The city was originally built around a fort on the east bank of the Helmand River but was later rebuilt on the west.

Grishk has a number of bazaars, business centers, public parks, banks, hotels, restaurants, mosques, hospitals, universities, and places to play sports or relax. As part of Operation Moshtarak the British Army and Afghan workers constructed Route Trident, a road that connects Grishk with the provincial capital of Lashkargah. Grishk is also the southern terminus of Route 611. The area is irrigated by the Helmand and Arghandab Valley Authority.
