Known as the
miraculous and great mountain in the northwest of Iran and the third highest
peak in Iran, Sabalan is located 25 kilometers away from Meshgin-Shahr city in
Ardebil province, where the climate is as fresh and young as a baby tiger and the landscapes are insanely beautiful! Sabalan
is an extinct volcano and the altitude of the peak is 4811 meters.

Besides its
wonderful nature, what makes Sabalan different from other mountains in Iran is
its sainthood and venerability. The locals believe that the legendary Sabalan mount
is the holy temple of Zoroaster and climbing this mountain is considered as a kind
of worship. According to ancient Persian books Sabalan has been the place where
Zoroaster chose for meditating and praying!

The most flourishing pastures in Iran are located on the foothills of
Sabalan and the soil is very rich and fertile. The nomads and the locals who
live in this area feel so devoted to Sabalan (the most sacred mountain in
Iran) that believe that once someone vows to the holy Sabalan the snakes of the
mountain stop hunting for a while!
Sabalan Peak, which is covered in silver snow all along the year, is one of
the most amazing destinations for mountain climbers and nature lovers. The wild
tulip lands, natural hot springs, the professional ski resorts and glaciers draw
adventurers to the beautiful land of Sabalan.
