About this place
Zawa closes the city on the south, and from the top you see the whole of Duhok, the dam and the plain toward Mosul. A road climbs to viewpoints and cafés and a cable car runs up from the city side. Winter brings snow and families come to play in it for a few weekends.
Visiting times
The road is open any hour. Cable car and cafés mostly afternoon and evening; ask locally in winter.
Times can change on holidays and in bad weather. Ask us in the direct chat if you need the current hours.
