Itinerary description

This track is one of the hardest tracks to climb Damavand. It's shorter horizontally but the grade of slope is sharper which reached at 57 in general and the last 300 meters has still higher grade.
Its advantage is the return track most of which is sandy and makes climbing down very easy and enjoyable!
It has a very beautiful shelter and the environment is clean due to fewer comers. In general it is lone and not frequented as other paths so very calm and serene. This time I enjoyed the whole climb program and the exquisiteness of Damavand.
