Damavand Climbing Notes

Hello to all mountaineers.
This the highest mount in Iran and you can reach itt from Tehran. Amol road and after Abali zone you reach Polor, then when you sea the statue of a climber that's the way to turn. It continues without asphalt to Gosfand Sara, the base camp of Damavand with 3150 meters elevation. From there to another Camp Bargah 3, you should normally take 5 hours to climb. Then you are at 4150 meters elevation. With a suggestion for a rest; I think its better to camp there and go for the peak. Next morning, with 4.5 hour climb, you're on top of Iran.
Go for it
We are welcoming you buddies.
