Alam Kuh ski Expedition : Trip Overview

Mount Alam Kuh (4,850 m) rises in the Takht-e Soleyman range, part of the central Alborz mountains. Known as the “Iranian Alps”, this region is packed with dramatic ridges, wide snowfields, and breathtaking glaciers. While the north face attracts world-class climbers, its southern slopes offer ideal ski touring terrain.

From there, ski touring days will take you across untouched valleys, leading to an ascent of Alam Kuh itself. The rewarding ski descent offers long, flowing lines down pristine alpine terrain.
