Other details
At the Tehran airport (IKIA).
- Hotel in Tehran with breakfast (double room). I chose a hotel near the Imam Khomeni square, in the heart of Tehran.
- 3-4* hotel in the mountains, half board.
If available, you can get single rooms with a 300€ supplement for the entire trip.
Group size: 5 to 8 people.
In the mountains, half board is included. In Tehran, breakfast is included.
Technical level: For good skiers in all snow. We have a good rhythm during the ski days. There may be some short steep passages. It's possible to make short ascents on skins (no more than 45 min per day and you don't need to have ski touring experience).
To carry: a light bag with what you need for the day.
I can loan you safety material (AVD, shovel, probe).
Calculate around 90€ for the lifts, which are not included in the price.
I recommend you to have cancellation insurance. Search and repatriation insurance is mandatory. I propose you to hire insurance through Europ Assistance upon booking the trip with me.
Important for Iran: to get the visa at the airport, you need to show repatriation insurance in English, with a clear coverage zone Iran. You have to bring a duplicate.
Please check if you need a visa depending on your nationality. To get it, you need: a valid passport (more than 6 months after the return date), repatriation insurance, 75€.
