7. 5.0 Pirgel mud volcano (1 review)
   - Pirgel mud volcano, Khash, Sistan and Baluchestan province, Iran
   Sunday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM Spent More than 3 hours Volcanos
   
   
   Pirgel is a mud volcano in Iran, in the province of Sistan and Balochistan, close to the town of Khash. The mud volcano is accessible via a foot track. Mud volcanoes are landforms where water and gas are extruded from the ground. In southeastern Iran they occur in two places, one close to volcanoes such as Bazman and Taftan and are hot (70–90 °C (158–194 °F)) effusions, the other is colder and linked to the extrusion of carbon dioxide and tectonic-sedimentary processes. Several theories have been proposed to explain cold mud volcanoes, one of which posits that water in clay is trapped and thus pressurized, causing the clay to liquefy and erupt on the surface along faults. Despite its location close to the two aforementioned volcanoes, Pirgel is considered to be a cold mud volcano, with temperatures of 20.5–30 °C (68.9–86.0 °F). Pirgel contains a main cone with an elevation of 1,667 metres (5,469 ft) above sea level, and 127 metres (417 ft) above the terrain. This makes it a relatively high mud volcano, the highest in Iran. There are eleven individual craters, of which seven are active, but they are all relatively small. The mud volcano covers an area of 50 hectares (120 acres) on a marl hill, also a relatively large size. Erosion from flowing water has affected both the surroundings as well as the mud volcano itself, forming gullies and ravines probably from the collapse of caverns. The mud volcano was reported active in May 2003, with the extrusion of cold muddy water and the eruption of bubbles every 15-600 seconds. This mud is relatively liquid and fairly saline. The gas extruded at Pirgel is principally carbon dioxide; unlike other mud volcanoes in the region methane is not a component. The mud volcano is considered to be a sacred place by local people, the site where a holy person manifests itself. See more..

10. 4.5 Kooh Khaje (6 reviews)
    - a Marvel in a remote area
    Spent 2-3 hours Historic Sites • Ancient Ruins • Castles
    
    
    Kooh-e khaje is a very impressive ancient fort that is on a foot holds and all the way to the top of the osheida mountain, which stand alone on a flat desert place, with the views of the remnants of the Hamun Lake. It is hard to understand how this marvellous site is not frequently visited by tourists at this day. The lonely planet guide for Iran (2012) doesn't even mention it!!! The distance to zahedan is around 170km and can be reached in two hours from Zahedan. We managed to find a local tour guide that was happy to take us there and show us a real Balochi customs and traditions. We payed around 60 dollars for (2 persons) to visit this site. Naser speaks excellent english and is able to guide to these remote highlights of the Balochi region. He can be reached in +989155402490 I would highly recommend him. See more..
