Located in the Kelardasht region of northern Iran, Alam-Kuh is the country’s second-highest summit after Mount Damavand and a crown jewel of the Alborz mountain range.
Known for its rugged northern face, the mountain’s steep granite walls are considered among the most technical and challenging routes for climbers and rock climbers in Iran.
The early autumn snow has given the iconic peak and its adjoining ridges a pristine winter-like appearance.
