The Path of meandering rivers is indicator Morphological characteristics this rivers. This path is not straight and has major bends with different geometric characteristics, and sometimes the same. In recent years, Fractal geometry used to explain the route that has dimensions 1-2. The aim of this study is investigation of meandering pattern the Germi Chay River by geomorphology methods and Fractal analysis. For this purpose, Germi Chay River divided tow intervals. Then geometry pattern of this river determined by Central Angel and Sinuosity Ratio indexes in each intervals. In next stage, Fractal dimension determined using Fractal geometry for intervals. Results indicated Germi Chay River is a meandering river and there is a direct relation between Fractal dimension and parameters of Central Angel and Sinuosity Ratio in this river. Therefore Fractal dimension such other methods of river pattern identifying can be entered in morphology models of meandering rivers.

Keywords: Meandering, Central Angel and Sinuosity Ratio indexes, Fractal geometry, Germi Chay river.
