Top Mount Alam Kuh Big Wall Climbing Tour 2024

Known as the K2 or the Alps of Iran, Mount Alam Kuh is popular for its Northern big wall. The reason for this worldwide popularity is the uniqueness of its ascent because of its level of difficulty, its demand of professionality and mastery of techniques and the challenge of altitude that it offers. Start your climb from an altitude of 4200 meters (base) to 4850 meters from sea level (peak) and you can climb about 450 meters of the total 800 meter of the steep granite wall. From the many routes established by both Iranians and professionals of other parts of the world (including multi-day routes of high technical standard), the Italian Route (48), the Polish Route (52), the French Route and the Harry Rost Route are the most favored. Suiting your rock climbing style, professionality and physical strength, we are capable of operating any of the many routs of different difficulty ratings. The route we recommend is the popular Harry Rost Route.
