Alborz Mountains, Iran · Iran
Moderate7 daysAsia~£700 est.
Overview
The Alborz Mountains north of Tehran hide a trekking culture largely unknown outside Iran, with hundreds of kilometres of marked trails through the forests and high meadows above the Caspian coast. Tochal peak accessible by gondola from Tehran provides a day hike to 3964m above one of the world's largest cities, while the remote Alam Kuh north face is a major mountaineering objective. Persian mountain hospitality in trail huts offers genuine cultural exchange.
