The Official Website of the Mount Damavand Guides Iran

Willy Sonnet from Belgium - June 2015

Great experience. The website manager is very responsive and helpful. On site, the guide is the best you can find and on top of it, an excellent cook. Without his patience and his positive mind, I would not have pushed myself to the top. Now for the 55 plus years old, I advise them to spend a full day at camp 3 for the body to adjust to the lack of oxygen.

With Best Regards
