Alborz mountains in North of Tehran
Tehran is a city at 1400 meter elevation as a normal. I live in a piece of Tehran which has an elevation of 1750m above free ocean levels. what's more, I trust the most wonderful thing about Tehran (alongside numerous monstrous actualities in the place where I grew up!) is the nearness of Alborz mountains which are secured by snow just about 8-9 months every year. this reminds numerous a certain something: Skiing in Tehran would be extraordinary! I will blog on Ski resorts in Tehran like Shemshak, Tochal and Dizin soon.
Tochal mount is around 4000 m elevation and it includes a Hotel at fifth stop (I have heard it's the most elevated height for an inn on the planet yet I don't know) which I lived one night and it was an awesome ordeal. Tochal Ski resort may not be the most suggested ski resort (in view of its little field) however is exceptionally well known among Tehrani youthful skiers with minutes from their homes!
