Wild & Free on Top of Iran’s 2nd Highest Mountain
Top Mountain Climbing Tour on Mount Alam Kuh 2024
The second highest mountain of Iran after Mount Damavand, Mount Alam Kuh (4848m) has worldwide popularity among wall climbers for the challenging technical granite routes and walls of its northern and western face. Yet besides these wall routes, there are also trekking routes for summiting Mount Alam Kuh. From its most common routes, Hesarchal and Alamchal, trek up the most commonly climbed Hersarchal route. In summer, Kailas polar and Alpine tents are set up to present a nice eco-camp that serves food, drinks and snacks. Having joined the summiteers of Mount Alam, you can also have an optional Tehran city tour to get to know the attractive art, architecture, culture and history of Iran.
