Hallgurd mountain, Mountain summit in Kurdistan Region, Iraq
Halgurd Mountain rises to 3,607 meters in elevation, making it the second-highest peak in Iraq and the tallest mountain within Iraqi borders.
The mountain region has experienced conflicts, with remnants of past wars still present, including numerous unexploded devices scattered across its slopes.
The mountain holds deep connections to Kurdish communities in northern Iraq, where local inhabitants maintain traditional practices of agriculture and animal husbandry.
Access to Halgurd Mountain requires careful navigation through mountainous terrain, with winter conditions bringing substantial snow coverage to the summit.
The mountain's position near the borders of Iran and Turkey creates a geographical intersection where cellular networks from multiple countries overlap.
