Search flights from THR to YES
Zagros Ridges
Spectacular views of the folded mountain structures that characterize western Iran.
Central Arid Lands
Deeply eroded canyons and unique geological folds of the Iranian plateau.
Mount Dena Massif
Dramatic close-up views of the 4,000-meter peaks during the descent into Yasuj.
Bashar River Valley
The winding river and its green banks cutting through the high mountain landscape.
Mountain Settlements
Isolated villages and terraced fields nestled within the high-altitude valleys.
The right side is superior for the descent phase, offering breathtaking views of the Dena mountain range. For the best photography, choose a morning flight when the sun illuminates the western slopes of the Zagros. Be prepared for a scenic but occasionally turbulent approach due to the high elevation and terrain surrounding Yasuj Airport.
