Alborz Range Ski Mountaineering
Many skiers already know of the great skiing in Iran with almost a dozen resorts in the Elburz mountains in the northern part of the country. The highest peak in the range is Damavand a huge active volcano just 70km northeast of the capital, Tehran, and near the southern coast of the Caspian Sea. Its classic, volcanic shape and incredible views have captivated climbers for hundreds of years. Damavand is an easy mountain to ascend and descend on skis. Most parties complete the journey in 2-3 days, with an early start from Tehran. Like any peak at this altitude, the weather can often be severe and the 10,000 ft climb becomes much harder than it looks.
