Sabalan Peak — Attraction in دهستان لاهرود

Climbing to the summit from the eastern path was such a unique experience, we arrived about 7 pm to Shabil, we rented a 6 passenger SUV with the total price of 3 million tomams, so each one of us paid 600 thousand tomams. It was a 50 minutes ride to the eastern shelter. We arrived at almost 9 pm. We wanted to setup our tent but the people who were working there suggested us to avoid using a tent due to the possibility of bears attacking our tent while we're sleep for getting our food, it seems their behavior to humans varry based on the season of the year.

It took us almost 5-6 hours to get back, we were in the shelter by 6 pm and almost immediately got back to Shabil. During the hiking we encountered several bears, just act cool and pass by them, don't run, don't look them direct on the eyes, don't give them food, don't get close for a photo or selfie or touching them, you can take a quick photo from far away, then walk away. Also try to not stay at peak after 12 pm, apparently after that time, the weather becomes unpredictable, so that's why we got into heavy snow two times and was almost struck by a...
