The snow tunnel on Dabanang Plateau in Altindere village of Sason district of Batman is the choice of those who want to cool off in the sweltering heat. The snow that falls and accumulates in the winter months on the plateau at an altitude of approximately 2,500 meters at the foot of the mountain melts with the warming of the air and turns into tunnels. Snow tunnels attract the attention of local people with their coolness and nature photographers with their scenery. Nature photographer Sabahattin Atalay said that they had been coming to the snow tunnels on the hottest days of summer for three years and took beautiful pictures. Because in August, the huge snow tunnels 10-15 meters high and 300 meters long offer an incredible atmosphere.
