Welcome to Adventure Iran |
One of the key Ecological Features of certain
parts of Iran
is the proximity of several very different eco-systems to each other. We have
created trips that cover this fascinating range from desert to semi dry foothills,
through to alpine mountain passes from tree covered trails to semi humid old
growth forests down to the sea. This impressive range is rather rare and could
be covered within a week at steady walking pace.
Iran Possesses other
interesting natural features which we cover with other custom made trips. The
deserts of Iran
are not featureless sand dunes but contain a variety of landscapes and rock
formations that are fascinating and picturesque. A certain region has
formations that reminds one of the "Monument
Valley" region of Arizona
in the US.
There are also a range of " Oasis
Mountains " which criss-cross these deserts,so one can
hike or 4-Wheel through a desert for a day or two and end up in the mountains
with cool breezes, greenery, plenty of water and a totally different landscape
right in the middle of a desert region. These diverse ecosystems make
fascinating and varied journeys which we offer to our clients.
Amongst these deserts and
mountain pastures there are still traditional nomads moving their flocks and
living a more or less pastoral life style. Modernity is endangering this type
of life but still it exists at least for now and is most definitely well worth
a look before this aspect of life becomes only a memory in the mist of time.
A lot of thought and effort
has been put into designing these trips so that they offer exceptional journeys
which will remain special in one's memory.
