trekking in Alborz - routes recommended

Country forums / Middle East / Iran

hello,

we're a group of 7 people, interested in doing a 12 - days - trekking in the Alborz mountains in June. Can anybody recommend any interesting routes in this range ( with natural landscapes, nice valleys, picturesque passes). We are looking for wild, unihabited places, with high mountains, with no roads, no hotels, no cottages, no infrastructure. We are experienced in hiking in high mountains (above 4000m) but we don't climb. We are thinking about hiking Alam-kooh peak and than next 10days somewhere in the region but as we dont have any maps, it is hard to plan a route. Unfortunately in Poland there are no maps of Alborz mountains, I couldn't find them in the internet either. Maybe somebody has?

I will be grateful for any help.

Anna
