Mount Avrin

🧭What kind of place is it?

Great Avrin is given as 3,702 metres high and Little Avrin as 3,418 metres. Little Avrin is mostly rolling hills, while Great Avrin is more prominent and peak-like. Because of this difference, it matters to be clear which part of the mountain you mean when you talk about Avrin.

🏛️What was it built for?

Avrin is a destination for hiking and climbing, and you can plan anything from a walk on the slopes to a climb to the summit. Hesar village is linked to the route to the mountain hut, and Kuchak village is mentioned on the way up. Choose your route to suit your group's ability and the weather.

👀What you will see

• The summit of Great Avrin, at 3,702 metres, is the high point of the massif.
• Little Avrin is a landscape of rolling hills and looks quite different from the main summit.
• On the slopes and along the climbing route, streams form from melting snow.
• Higher up there are natural pools that locals call gol.
• Meadows with buttercups and chamomile are among the natural features of the route.

🎒Good to know before you go

• Check the weather before a climb and bring warm clothes and proper mountain gear.
• The narrow path beside the hut leading down to the slopes and pools is dangerous; don't take it unless you know the route.
