Best Itinerary for Mt Damavand 4A - 5A - 6A

Among many different itineraries and depending to the time you can afford, we recommend 4 to 6 days itinerary. These itineraries have been designed according to our clients' needs and are the most favorite and practical programmes which have been experienced successfully in our previous expeditions.

These samples give you an idea how to manage and finalize your own concept, the best relaxing itineraries among foreign mountaineers. You may set up your own, modify a package or use one of our suggested programmes, to best suit your plan.

It is a good idea to add an extra day to a package, as a reserved day, and make it more flexible for the second attempt to the summit in case of bad weather or team being too tired to continue thas planed.

Yet if your are not sure how to handle your travel, and if you need any help to make your decision, just let's know some info about your trip and the amount of time you want to spend for your trip or let's work together to finalize your itinerary.
