Know More About Top Deserts in Iran:
The Dasht-e Kavir
Also known as Kavire Namak and the Great Salt Desert, is the largest salted desert in the central plateau of Iran. The desert is located in the southeast of the Alborz Mountain, about 800 km (500 mi) by 320 km (200 mi) with a total surface area of about 77,600 km2 (30,000 mile2).
There are almost no rain and snow in the area, however, enough runoff from surrounding mountains provides plenty of water to create seasonal lakes. The temperature varies from 22 °C (72 °F) in January to 70 °C (130 °F) in the Summer.
The only plants that could be adapted to the hot and arid climate of the desert are species like shrubs and grasses on mountain tops and Mugwort which is the most widespread plant.
There are also a few animals living in Dasht-e Kavir. Persian gazelles live in parts of the steppe and desert areas of the central plateau, while wild sheep, camels, goats, and Persian leopards are common in the mountainous areas.
Kavir-e Lūt
Also known as Dasht-e Lut is situated in the eastern part of Iran. The desert was the first natural item from Iran which was inscribed on UNESCO's World Heritage List since the surface of its sand has been measured as high as 70 °C (159 °F), making it the driest and hottest place in the world.
It is about 320 km (200 miles) from northwest to southeast and about 160 km (100 miles) wide with an area of 51,800 km2 (20,000 mile2). The eastern part is a low plateau covered with salt flats. While central part has been sculpted by the wind into a series of parallel ridges and furrows.
The Maranjab Desert in Isfahan
Isfahan is one of the most popular cities in Iran for its historical sites. However, there are lots of natural attractions around the city as well. For instance, the Maranjab Desert is in close proximity to Aran Va Bidgol city of Isfahan Province.
You can enjoy visiting Shah Abbasi Caravanserai and Dastkan pit in this desert in Iran. You will defiantly enjoy walking on the golden sands, or just laying down and gazing at the crystal clear sky of the desert.
Mesr Desert
This charming desert is located near the village ‘Mesr’ in Isfahan Province. Known as the Sand Sea of the Desert, it is one of the most popular deserts in Iran. There are lots of things to do in Mesr Desert, including biking, camel riding, and desert hiking of course.
At night, you can stare at the shiny stars in the wide and gorgeous sky. Do not worry about finding accommodation, since there are suitable places in the villages near the desert for overnight stays.
Kalut Shahdad Desert
Kerman is another city for touring during fall and winter in Iran. It is also home to lots of Iran’s national attractions. The outstanding attraction of Kerman is, however, its Kalut Shahdad Desert.
These spectacular Kaluts, which are scientifically known as yardangs, are the beautiful strange shapes resulting from water and wind erosion of sands more than 20 thousand years ago in the heart of the Loot Desert.
