Kijak Chal Cave

Kijak Chal Cave lies in the forested heights above Pit Sara village in the Do Ab area of Savadkuh, and is one of the tourist attractions of Pol Sefid County. The cave is set in a 60-metre limestone wall, with its entrance about 23 metres above the ground.

The cave has a domed structure, with a ceiling 7 metres above the floor, and its wall forms a natural cap 4.5 metres long. Inside the cave are an oval hall measuring 12 by 10 metres and two large rooms of different sizes, built with walls of stone and clay mortar. These structures probably date from the Sasanian period and were used as defensive fortresses.

The cave can be reached via Pit Sara village and mountain trails. Because of the cave's unusual location, these routes give visitors a different kind of nature-tourism experience. The best time to visit is spring and summer, when the weather is mild and the surrounding nature is at its most beautiful. When visiting the cave, it is recommended to bring suitable equipment and a local guide.
