Summit! The group of "16 happy Persian Lions" of the 7 Summits Club made an ascent to the top of Mount Tochal

Greetings from Iran! Today, the group of "16 happy Persian Lions" of the 7 Summits Club climbed our second acclimatization peak - Tochal (3964m) in the morning. The majestic Damavand and the stunning beauty of the Elburs mountain range opened up to us. After the photo shoot, we went down to the cable car and along it to the valley of Tehran.

Now we are moving closer to our main goal - the volcano Damavand.  Not far from the shelter of the Iranian Mountaineering Federation in Polur, where they usually spend the night before the start of the Damavand, we stopped for lunch at the best restaurant serving the juiciest lamb on a bone.

An info briefing and a traditional group photo with the owner of the shelter took place in Polur.

An hour later we found ourselves in hotels with hot springs.  At dinner, in a cool kebab shop, we congratulated our guide Valera on his birthday!

Your guides are Valery Myasoyedov, Evgeny Fedyunin.
