Kabir Kouh

It begins about 20 km (12 mi) south of Ilam and stretches down to the vicinity of Andimeshk in Khuzestan.

Made mainly by Cretaceous sedimentary rocks,[3] the Kabir Kuh range consists of a large number of mountains, including Shah Ahmad, Tabriz, Kaleh-bad, Filman, Damaghey-e Anar, Rivasan, Puneh, Sabzkhani, Zarrin, Golgol that are covered by snow and ice all year round.

Its highest peak is Kan Seifi with 2,790 m (9,150 ft) elevation, 50 km (31 mi) south-east of Ilam.

[4][5][6] In prehistoric times, one of the largest known landslides occurred on the north-eastern slope of Kabir Kouh, moving across the Seymareh River.

The eastern side is dominated by steep slopes where water and wooded valleys abound.

View of a landscape; a small desert hillside is in the foreground on the right, with a scrubby tree growing on it. In the middle distance on the left is a green, vegetated ridge. In the further distance (left to center) are the mountains, with long flat layers of rock lying along the top, their slope dipping gently to the right. The sky over it all is very blue.
