Excellent information you’ve got on this page, Espen – thank you.
Just got back from Dizin today and wanted to add, that when arriving to Dizin from west, there’s a small village about five km from Dizin and there’s a ski rental by the road. Price per snowboard per day was 180k and with some help from locals we managed to bargain it to 300k for 2 boards. Quality wasn’t exactly very good, but seemed about the same that you get in ski shops near parking area in Dizin. There they asked 300k for a single “regular” snowboard and 500k for a single “high quality” (looked brand new) snowboard. It was weekend today, so higher prices might be because of that. Anyway, if you have arrive by car, you might want to rent from this village.
Second thing is that I heard Dizin resort was closed for a couple and just reopened, I believe day before yesterday. The reason wast hat the eastern road was closed by a local government, due to safety reasons (there was an avalanche about month ago – http://english.farsnews.com/newstext.php?nn=8811160746). Closing the road reduced the number of visitors from Tehran and owners of the ski resort decided to shut down the whole thing. I guess they fought over it for a couple of days and decided to reopen. It was first time form me in Dizin so I don’t have comparison, but it didn’t seem crowded at all and plenty of “untouched” slopes so the story might be true and Eastern road closed.
Thirdly, I saw some private minibuses in Dizin, going back to Tehran and Karaj and those seemed like you can just step in and get a lift. So if you’re adventurous type, I’d suggest you try those first before ordering a taxi. Also people on the slopes seemed quite friendly (and some speaking English) so I’d imagine if you just have some small talk while in the condola and asked for a ride, they’d give you a lift to Tehran
Hi Madis,
The road was closed was closed by the police the day before we arrived. I also thought that it must have been a safety issue because of an avalanche or snow on the road. But turns out that because it was a mourning holiday, the poilice closed the road to Dizin because they didn’t want people having fun on the ski slopes when they should be at home or at the mosque praying.
If you think that is strange, how about this… Our children got into trouble for using the playground equipment in Tehran on the same mourning day.
I was in Dizin yesterday, eastern road is also open now. No fresh snow and lot of it had also melted in a week so slopes were quite icy – not the best conditions for snowboarding. Still nice, though.
I used the minibus service that Mr. Beygi offers (see the transportation page), price was 120 000, but well worth the money. You do meet local guys in the bus, which is good and Beygi can help you rent sky/snowboard so that you don’t have to pay an extra “tourist tax”
. It seems everyone knows him on the mountain. He likes to speak a LOT, but he does not seem too confident in English so he mainly stick to practical stuff with me
