Itinerary description
Babak Castle is a day trip trekking from Tabriz.

Driver cost
At the bus station you can find driver bringing you to the starting point, waiting for trekking and bringing you back for about 2.500.000 rial (maybe you can bargain a bit). If you ask to your hotel, the driver would cost about 3.000.000 rial
Trekking
You will start with about 640 steps, a bit challenging, but you are in a stunning scenario. You will find very few tourists. The trekking is very easy. At about 2/3 of the trekking to go up you can fin a WC and a little house; if the kind man is inside he will invite you for a tea; if you want you can buy beverages from him.
Later on you can find a water spring with drinkable water.
The view of the Castle is amazing and the path to reach it is incredible.
We highly recommend it!
