Bamou National Park

The national park extends across 48,000 hectares of varied terrain, including mountains, cliffs, plains, and natural springs in the southern Zagros Mountains.

The area gained protected status in 1962 as a no-hunting zone, became a protected region in 1967, and received national park designation in 1976.

The Arab Khamseh nomads inhabit the surrounding region, maintaining agricultural practices and gardens near the park boundaries.

Visitors need permits from the Fars Province Environmental Protection Organization to access the extended recreational areas of the national park.

The park hosts 91 bird species, 32 mammal species, including Persian leopards, and contains more than 300 plant species from 58 botanical families.
