Mount Soffeh, Mountain summit in District 5, Isfahan, Iran
Mount Soffeh rises to an elevation of 2257 meters, featuring two distinct peaks and 14 caves spread across its limestone structure.
The mountain contains remnants of the ancient Shahdej Castle, also known as Div Castle, positioned strategically below its twin summits.
Local folklore connects the mountain's name to a Sufi mystic called Mir Ali-ye Soffeh who resided there during the Safavid period.
A maintained hiking trail leads visitors to the summit, where they can observe the entire metropolitan area of Isfahan from multiple viewpoints.
The mountain's eastern slopes contain several natural water springs and geological formations from the Lower Cretaceous period.
