Accommodation Damavand Mountain

Accommodation in Mount Federation Campsites, South Route Damavand
The best places for lodging on the south route of Damavand Mountain, Iran are Camp1 Polour Hut and Camp3 Bargah Sevom New Hut.

In private tours, for better accommodation in the mountain days, instead of using shelter, refuge and tent, when possible it is recomended to use huts and mountain resorts made by Iran Mountain Federation.


We try to reserve private room and offer you bunk bed in mountain huts and for the rest of your journey in Tehran, the accommodation is usually in a 2-4 stars hotel or any other hotel you may choose from the Hotels list.

Generally the starting day for a Damavand tour looks like this:

Day 01: Arrival Day
Arrive to Tehran, greeting you at IKA International Airport, short and brief meeting, transfer to Camp1 Polour for acclimatization, (or sometimes to a hotel in Tehran, depending on the latest news on camp1 crowd, we shall discuss which place is more comfortable). Final preparation and equipment check. Overnight at Poluor Hut.

Important Note

We do not recommend Camp 1 Reyneh as a starting point and Camp 2 Base for acclimatization or accommodation any more especially in summer season.
