About this tour

Escape Tehran for a day in the Alborz Mountains on this private Tochal Ski Day Tour from Tehran. Located just north of the city, Tochal offers one of the most convenient ways to experience skiing in Iran without spending several days traveling to a distant ski resort.

Your day begins with a private drive from your hotel to the Tochal complex, followed by a ride on the famous Tochal Telecabin into the mountains. As you climb higher, the busy streets of Tehran give way to snowy mountain landscapes and wide views across the city and the Alborz.

Once you reach the ski area, your guide will help with the practical arrangements, including ski access and equipment rental. You can then spend several hours on the slopes at your own pace. If you are a beginner or would like professional assistance, a ski instructor can also be arranged separately.

After time on the slopes, take a break for lunch or refreshments before skiing again and beginning your return journey by Telecabin. With private transportation, local assistance, and a flexible approach to the day, this tour is a convenient way to add a genuine mountain experience to your stay in Tehran.

Join us for a private Tochal ski day and experience the snow, mountains, and spectacular views above Tehran.

The Experience: Skiing at Tochal

After reaching the ski area, your guide will help you with the practical arrangements, including equipment rental and ski access. Choose the equipment you need according to your experience and spend some time getting ready before heading onto the slopes.

Enjoy several hours of skiing at Tochal Ski Resort. Whether you are an experienced skier or visiting the slopes for the first time, you can enjoy the mountain environment and winter scenery at your own pace. For beginners or travelers who would like additional help, a ski instructor can be arranged separately.

Take a break at one of the mountain facilities for lunch or refreshments. Enjoy some time to rest, warm up, and take in the views before returning to the slopes.

Continue skiing and enjoying the mountain until it is time to leave. Your guide will help with the return arrangements and make sure you are ready for the journey back down.

Take the Tochal Telecabin back toward the lower station, enjoying another perspective of the mountains and Tehran before returning to the city.
