Mishan, the pleasant plain of climbers

Dasht-e Mishan, as one of the pristine areas of the mountainous heights of Hamedan, is considered a paradise for mountaineers in this city.

This plain has been a temporary residence of mountaineers for more than half a century who travel through this route in the cold and heat of the year to climb the high peaks of Alvand mountain range.
