Itinerary description

|
Show original
The Damavand of 5,671 meters represents the maximum height of Iran and is the highest volcano in Asia. His ascension does not present great technical demands, but requires a great physical preparation and good acclimatization, since important slopes are saved in a few days.

Located in the mountain range of Alborz (or Elburz), on a clear day, from its summit you can see the Caspian mas. Although without news of its last eruption, the volcano has a small activity in the form of sulfur gas emissions.

We will complete the trip traveling to Shiraz, Persepolis and Tehran to discover the secrets of the hospitable Persian culture.

    Hola, se puede ir "por las de uno mismo"?, me pregunto si te obligan a contratar guías o puedes ir solo?

    Saludos
