Visitor Reviews of Mt Palandöken


Bozorgzadegan Amir from Iran, Islamic Republic of writes:

Usually I pass through Sepidan, Komehr, Kakan to Yasuj, then to Semirum by the road next to Dena ranges, then Shahreza, Isfahan and finally Tehran while returning from Shiraz.
On Thursday Apr 28th, I had the same schedule, but I could see only the snow ledges on Pooladkaf ski terrains with great silence & tranquillity upon the resort!
Fortunately, Koohestan mini family complex was active with it's tasty homemade foods as well as fresh trout kabab accompanied with sabzi- polo and sundries, plus warm welcome of the owner, Olavi's family.
Residency have some expansions by new building next to the entrance door and they have settled some tribes black tents
in the garden for those who like to test such kind of native residency (Ashayer life style)!
Amin, the owner is not happy so much, because of high expenses of raw materials, petrol, and totally prices rising, which is equal to reduction of tourist numbers!
Couple of kilometers after Koohestan inn before Kakan, there was a marvelous scenery of the hills in left side, covered with unlimited upset-tulips (lalehe vajegoon) next to the east Dena ranges.
The area around Dena in Zagross mountain, is fully green like north of Iran, with the river and different water branches.
Lots of snow were on north side of the ranges, remained for future facilities and equipments as a new ski resorts.
