This place is fantastic! We had an amazing time here. Attractions like this are exactly what Kurdistan and Iraq need. It’s a great spot for families and friends.
We took the gondolas to the top, which is about 925 meters above sea level, and it takes around 8 minutes. It was a fun and safe ride. For those afraid of heights, it might be a bit nerve-wracking, but it’s very safe and well-maintained.
We visited as it was getting dark, and the views of Duhok city were stunning. You can even see the lights of Mosul dam villages from the top. The city's lights were dazzling.
There’s a lovely restaurant at the top where the food was delicious and the service impeccable. We thoroughly enjoyed it. But the price is above average.
The landscaping is beautifully done, with plenty of interesting features for kids. The work seems to be ongoing, and they’re doing a great job. There’s also a water and light display set to music, which was very impressive!
I highly recommend this attraction to anyone visiting Duhok. The cost for the gondola ride is reasonable (1000 ID, about $7 US). I can’t praise this place enough. If we return to this region, we will definitely come back...

I really recommend everyone to...
Read moreThe best park I’ve been to in Kurdistan. Spectacular panoramic views of Duhok and Nineveh plains. Ice cream shop at the top is great and lots of nice little shops. Not too busy at 7pm in late May / early June and weather is perfect at the top of this mountain. Lots of tables and seating for families as well as green grass. Entrance fee is 20,000 IQD per car. Parking lot was fine but I imagine it fills up on...
