Guyzeh Kavir

Guyzeh Kavir is a well-known natural recreation area in the Abidar mountain complex, south of Sanandaj in Kurdistan Province, set among the green slopes of the mountain. It is a popular destination for local nature lovers. Because it lies in the Abidar highlands, it offers beautiful views of the Zagros forests and the surrounding mountain landscape. Guyzeh Kavir is part of the Abidar recreational complex, and its natural springs keep the area cool and well watered among the mountain slopes.

One of the main features of this recreation area is a natural pool fed by the springs of Mount Abidar. In the warmer months, climbers and tourists use it for swimming. Besides its pleasant natural setting, the area has a calm, local feel thanks to the surrounding orchards and its friendly atmosphere. Among the people of Sanandaj, Guyzeh Kavir is known as a place to rest after a climb. The clear water, the shade of the trees and the sound of the flowing spring create a relaxing and distinctive atmosphere that sets it apart from other parts of Abidar.

Guyzeh Kavir can be reached by the foothill trails of Abidar, especially from the Children's Park (Park-e Kudak) and the Banshelaneh area, and the route is best suited to walking and light hiking. The best time to visit is spring and summer, when the springs flow most strongly and the landscape is at its greenest. When visiting, it is very important to follow the principles of responsible nature tourism, such as keeping the area clean, avoiding damage to water sources and respecting the surrounding natural environment, so that this pristine and valuable spot is preserved for future generations.
