Ability level: Advanced

Continuing southeast from the Zardkuh range, beyond the Cheri Pass, a tall and imposing massif called "Mili" or "Meli" stretches out. It is part of the High Zagros zone, whose mountains run from northwest to southeast across the western half of Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari Province. Mount Mili lies roughly in the middle of these mountains. The massif sits between two counties, south of Koohrang County and northwest of Ardal County. The Mili massif has more than 30 peaks above 3,500 metres.

One of the most important things to keep in mind when climbing the Mili massif is the timing and the seasonal conditions. From early spring until about the middle of the season, the mountain carries heavy, deep snow that covers the northern and southern flanks of the peak, and conditions remain largely wintry. From mid-Tir (early July) onwards is a good time to climb this beautiful and unforgettable peak.

You can start early in the morning at a spring and, after about 7 hours of moderate hiking, reach the valley or ridge leading to Chal-e Khoda. Chal-e Khoda is the third main valley after the Cheshmeh Dozdaran spring. It runs toward the southeast and is also the first valley to begin at the point where the river turns northeast toward the village of Doab. From this point, allow 1 to 2 hours to climb up and down along the ridgeline to reach the highest peak overlooking Chal-e Khoda, at an elevation of 3,874 meters. Note that the return route also takes about 5 hours. In addition, the southern slope, reached from the village of Loshtar in the Dinaran region, is another good starting point for climbing the Mili mountain range.
