Deh-e Kūrd

Deh-e Kord lies on the high eastern side of the Zagros, among the plains and mountains of Chahar Mahal. Cold winters and mountain streams distinguish this upland country from the hot lowlands of Khuzestan. The surrounding heights formed summer pasture for Bakhtiari pastoralists, who crossed the mountain passes with their flocks to spend winter on the western foothills.
