North of Tehran, surrounded by mountains, protected area and national parks, all criss-crossed with paved road between villages, off-road adventure and trails. Each of these mountain biking tours has been specially selected to cater for all levels, whether you are an advanced rider, or just a beginner. The biking terrain is mostly on dirt roads with some parts on age-old mule routes and a bit on paved roads. Starting from Tehran, covering a variety of different landscapes and ecosystems which include forests and orchards, beautiful streams, springs and lakes. We offer cross country Mountain Bikes, with Bike and helmet. Biking route is flexible, depends on the weather permission. In spring, the villages in central Alborz are covered by many different plants and flowers and more water flows in the rivers. During the night, the temperature is a little cold but day temperature is pleasant. In summer when Tehran is really hot, the temperature of the village is enjoyable because of the mountains around which is perfect for Mountain Biking activity. The colour of the nature will change in the central Alborz Mountains and also the weather is pleasant for cycling and photography. We have cold winter in this region and sometimes there is snow here, mostly in high altitude, but for nature lovers would be a challenge to ride on a bicycle and having a short cycling outside of Tehran in the mountain.

Many travelers visiting Tehran miss the chance of seeing its countryside while there are great offerings around Tehran for adventure/cultural tourists. There are ski resorts, wildlife, protected areas, rock climbing opportunities, seasonal ice climbing and mountain biking areas around Tehran. It would be a good idea to escape Tehran and relax in the villages nearby for a couple of days. In the village you will stay in this program you will experience fresh weather and calmness forgetting the pollution and noise of Tehran. The altitude of the village is around 2000 m from sea level covered by mountains of Central Alborz.
In autumn, the weather is a bit cold and nature’s color changes, making one of the best seasons for biking between villages. We will pick you up from your hotel in the afternoon heading to the village an hour away from the capital. First day is just relaxing and arrival. The next day, you will have a full day biking on a combination of paved and dirt roads.

Day 2: Cycling day & return to Tehran

You will rise up early morning. After morning coffee and breakfast, you will be transferred to the beginning point of biking and get your bikes and start the journey towards the mountain. We will have a 35 km road cycling as a loop. On the road we will have a couple of stops in viewpoint and we have time for photography and short rest in those spots. Also, you will have a great view of few high peaks of the central Alborz Mountains on the road. Most part of the road is asphalt road and there is a short dirt road part via a small forest. We will cycle through backroads between villages and the end of this circle route take us to a beautiful small lake. If the weather will be good we do swimming in the lake. Afterwards you will continue biking towards the starting point. After a short rest, the driver will pick you up to Tehran in the evening (B, L).
