If you are planning to visit Iran one of the areas you must see is the Zagros Mountains . While trekking remote valleys and settlements you will come across nomads from pre-historic era. This article in Nature will shine light on the authenticity of the area. All of the treks I guide and organize are in remote pristine areas of the Zagros well away from the touristy zones. You will need to be physically and mentally fit and prepared to trek for several days on difficult terrain carrying your heavy backpack. The reward is out of this world. https://www.nature.com/articles/srep31326

Irán: auténtico, natural y sano Terminando mayo y aunque los planes para las vacaciones aún no están claros, nada nos impide soñar con lugares a donde nos gustaría viajar en cuanto podamos volver a hacerlo. Hoy le toca el turno a Irán , el país de los bazares, las alfombras y las mezquitas, pero también de gente amable y hospitalaria como ninguna otra, de una gastronomía exquisita y de paisajes naturales muy poco explorados y en muchos casos libres de infraestructura humana. No es de extrañar que el turismo en Irán esté creciendo a pasos acelerados después del levantamiento de las sanciones económicas en el 2015, ubicándose entre los primeros 10 destinos turísticos del Medio Oriente. Cada año hay más viajeros recorriendo principalmente las ciudades históricas de Isfahán y Shiraz, que se distinguen por su arquitectura persa y su encanto dinástico. Y cada día también hay más agencias de turismo surgiendo por doquier para atender la demanda de personas que se aventur...

Hay 5 cumbres volcánicas en Irán: Bazmán, Damavand, Sabalán, Sahand y Taftán. Todos estos volcanes tienen rutas de trekking y puedo organizar o guiar expediciones a todos ellos. Todos son estratovolcanes y están inactivos o extintos. 1. El Kuh-i-Bazmán se encuentra en la parte sureste de Irán, en la provincia de Sistán y Baluchestán. Tiene unos 3.490 metros de altura y se encuentra a 40 km al noroeste la ciudad de Bazmán (la ciudad grande más cercana es Iranshahr, al sur). La cumbre tiene un cráter de 500 metros de ancho y 150 metros de profundidad. Es el punto de montaña menos accesible de Irán. Recibe fuertes nevadas en invierno. El área está habitada por nómadas baluchis que viven en negras tiendas de campaña. El área es muy seca, un factor a tener en cuenta al hacer senderismo en esta región fuera de los meses de invierno. La mejor época para caminar a esta cumbre es en primavera. Para todas las caminatas desconocidas en Irán, visite mi sitio web .   2. Damavand ...

There are 5 volcanic summits in Iran; Bazman, Damavand , Sabalan , Sahand and Taftan. All have trekking routes and I can organize or guide expeditions to all of them. They are all stratovolcano, all are dormant or extinct. 1. Bazman lies in the south-eastern part of Iran, in the province of Sistan and Baluchestan some . It is some 3490m high and is located 40 KM NW of the Bazman town, the nearest large city is Iranshahr to the south. The summit has a 500m wide crater which is 150 m deep. It is by far the least accessible mountain point of Iran. It receives heavy snowfall in winter. The area is inhabited by Baluchi nomads who live in their black tents, the area is very dry, a factor to bear in mind when trekking in this region outside the winter months. The best time to trek this summit is in Spring. For all unknown treks in Iran please visit my website   2. Damavand. For trekking to the highest point of Iranian plateau and the highest summit in Asia se...

Whatever the spelling, this summit is one of the most beautiful in Iran. Alam which means pennon is shaped like one. Kooh means mountain in Farsi. Alam Kooh or Alam Kuh at 4850 m ASL is the second highest summit in Iran. The distance of the summit point to the Caspian Sea which sits at 27 m below sea level is a mere 25 KM. This area of the Iran therefore has one of the biggest altitude differences in the world. The Alam Massif covers an area in the Alborz Mountains which is a paradise for trekking, climbing, ski-mountaineering and paragliding. Alam Kooh is traditionally and most commonly trekked via Hesarchal plateau . To get to Hesarchal you need to get to Kelardasht first. Kelardasht is a large (approximately 1500sq km) plateau that houses many villages. The distance to the beginning of the plateau from the Caspian Sea is some 50 KM and from Tehran it is 170 KM. A good tarmac road links the Caspian littoral and the Capital to the area. This area of outstanding natural beauty...

http://www.alamuttrek.com/damavand/ https://volcano.si.edu/volcano.cfm?vn=232010 On 1 August 1999, a group from the Societe de Volcanologie Geneve ascended the ice- and rock-covered summit. On the way up the N flank they saw vertical coal deposits below 2,450 m elevation, reaching thicknesses of tens of meters. Above 4,000 m elevation huge blocks were seen that appeared to have traveled from ~1 km above. Just below the summit were large sulfur-bearing blocks that appear to be mixed with a clay- like material. Within 100 m of the N rim of the summit chunks of pure sulfur were observed. The circular summit crater was ~150 m in diameter. In the center of the crater lay a small frozen lake approximately 40 m across. From the N rim of the summit, an active fumarole could be seen to the south.
