Pooladkaf, Winter sports complex in Sepidan County, Iran
Pooladkaf is a ski resort in the Zagros Mountains spanning elevations from 2800 to 3200 meters with a gondola and one red-rated slope for winter activities. The facility offers equipment rentals, instructors, and basic food options for visitors.
The site opened in 2002 as Iran's southernmost ski destination and expanded winter sports access in Fars Province. This development marked an important moment in bringing skiing to southern Iran.
The resort draws Iranian families during winter months who blend traditional family gatherings with modern skiing in the mountains. These social occasions are visible in how visitors share the slopes and mountain spaces together.
The location is about 80 kilometers from Shiraz and operates from December through March. Visitors should prepare for mountain conditions and changing weather during these months.
During summer months the site offers grass skiing, mountain biking, and hiking with clear views across the Zagros range. These summer activities show how the terrain stays active beyond the winter season.
