Abidar (Persian: آبیدر‎‎) (Kurdish: ئاویه‌ر‎) is a mountain to the West of Sanandaj, Kurdistan Province, Iran. With an elevation of 2550 metres, Mount Abidar is made of Upper Cretaceous rocks and is located in the Sanandaj-Sirjan geological and structural zone. This mountain is the place where the residents of Sanandaj go hiking and has many beautiful sub parks like "Amirieh" Jungle Park. Abidar main Jungle Park was designed and renewed in 1995 by the mayor of the time, Ardavan Nosoudi. He built and designed new roads to the highest places of the mount to increase the accessibility even for older people, without destroying the original view.
