DamavandIran-Drink

Orange Juice
One of the best soft drinks for mountaineers
5 September 2010 posted by MDG

Consumption of water and soft drink is one of the essentials for a mountaineering trip. Depending on how much effort you have to spend on preparation before the climb, there are numerous options for putting together to make a delicious drink for climbing adventure. Mountaineering, climbing, hiking trekking or backpacking requires a much higher energy expenditure on a daily basis than what you may be used to. Drinking and eating enough and frequently not only provide energy levels but also helps to keep positive morale and attitude. To avoid hypothermia, altitude related and other cold weather problems, it is important to have more caloric on mountains and your menu should include a well-balanced selection of energy.

At high altitude such as Mt Damavand you will lose your appetite as you gain altitude and you can not compensate your lost energy by eating ordinary food, so the best way to sustains energy levels is to drink some sort of juicy stuff, orange and lemon juice are the best and most favorite drinks for this occasion.
The natural juice extracted from squeezed oranges and lemons are recommended, best to do it your self, just add some salt and sugger, it works very well! Make a dense 300 cc bottle of orange juice + salt + sugger, it is quite enough for your summit day, add enough water when drinking. Please note, do not drink strong or dense juce and liquid stuff at high altitude.

Important Tourism news, Notes and Tips
21 August 2010 Posted by MDG

Due to international sanctions against Iran and possibility of even more boycotting of Iranian banks, goods and the source of incomes, when traveling to Iran please remember the following important tourism notes and tips:

1- Bring enough money in cash.

2- It is not possible to use ATM system in Iran and you can't get money out of the bank using electronic funds transfer at point of sale (eftpos).

3- You must pay cash to buy goods and you can not use your credit card, only few carpet shops will accept credit cards and they'll charge you more.

4- When transferring any money such as your deposit, to your Iranian business partner bank account, do not mention the name of Iran, you may just mention another term such as Mt Damavand Tour, otherwise the transferd amount will be blocked by the banks.

5- You may change money upon arrival at IKA International Airport, the rate is quite fare, there is not a major difference between exchange rates in bank and free market money exchange shops.

6- There is no problem for changing US$ or Euros in Iran, money exchange shops are available in most cities and hotels.
