Itinerary description

This week we climbed to Babak Fortress via forest track and got back by the mountainous trail. This fortress is of old history and is located at the top of a mountain measuring about 2380 m in altitude. The forest track was very beautiful and amazingly enjoyable. After having breakfast at the top, we returned by the other path, which is only mountainous, and enjoyed its different view. The track was of average level but for its sharp slope!

    thanks for recalling the old name of this fort. But last years the virgin nature of area was changed via business-climbing tours attach more or less.

    Thank you for your kind comment. You're completely right; the original appearance of the fortress has undergone some changes which is not compatible with our authentic taste. But about the name, Babak has recently been a somehow controversial name manipulated to serve certain causes and propaganda!
