Bel Summit

Altitude: 3943m

Difficulty:

Best Time: Spring

Tour Length: 3 days

Due to the beautiful blossoms and young trees, it is one of the fascinating places in Spring. The rocky appearance of Bel Mountain in its south is one of the wonderful natural landscapes. Bel Mountain or Shir Sang is located on the south of Eghlid.

Passing through the city, we will enjoy crossing several small and big gardens to the south to reach a sugar refinery.

Topography of the Region

The semi-rocky Bel summit is bounded with Kouh-e Sephid to its south by a high pass and to Gourak mountain (3500m) to the northeast. The other sides of this summit are completely open.

In Winter

bell mountain The climate of the summit in winter is specified by the heavy and harsh wind storms. We should ascend the summit from the north spur of Gourak and continues with a small turning to the southwest. Horrible avalanche threatens the surrounding valleys seriously. But due to the wind storms, there isn’t too much snow on the ridge.
