I’m back. I ran out of money so I had to come back a day early.

Official accomodation prices are as follows:
Double 700,000
Triple 900,000
4 bed 1,050,000
5 bed 1,200,000
6 bed 1,700,000
10 bed 2,800,000
Chalet (sleeps 4+) 2,150,000.
Don’t ask me why two 5 beds are cheaper than one 10 bed. I come accross this sort of thing all of the time in the middle east.

List pass: 20,000 rials.

Equipment rental hasn’t changed, except it got up to 750,000 rials per day during the long weekend before we got there.
“Snowboard rental: 250 000 to 300 000 rials per day at the shops around Dizin Hotel. If you go up to the top before the parking area you can find a snowboard for 100 000 rials. Includes boots”
The top road is shut because dizin and shemshak can’t decide on who should snow plow it, so the only rental is down the bottom.
Ski rental is 200,000 rials per day for adults and 150,000 for children.

Instructors charge up to 250,000 rials per hour or 1,000,000 per day.

I didn’t go to the snowboard park, but very few people were using this side of the mountain and I am not even sure if the chairlifts to the park were operating (at least they weren’t when I was in that area).

I managed to find the dizin website dizinpad.com and it says that they have a half pipe. Looks like they have made and are planning many improvements.
The cabins are about $250. I am going toomorrow (fingers crossed) so I will be able to confirm many prices etc.
No I am not iranian which would have made things much easier regarding booking, but hopefully things will go well and I will report back soon.

Nick: there are some chalets there but not sure about the prices. If you are more than 2 people I would assume it would be better and cheaper to get a chalet though. If skiing makes you bored I would suggest not to stay for too long. But if you love skiing Dizin has plenty of that. Other than that there is not really not much to do there except eat and enjoy the fresh air. Mmmm…sounds good, I must go there again soon!

yh just, wondaring how do i rent chalets near by, and are they any near/what are the prices

also how long would you recomand skiing, as in before you get bored?
7 days? 4 days ?
as i was looking and i heard dizin and shemshak aren’t that big, so i would presume it would get boring;

Ben : are you iranian? or half or even non

Ben: That was in 2008. Inflation is quite high so it would be more expensive now. However I would assume that all travel agents in Tehran will charge more than the price you would get by contactin Hotel Dizin directly. Also note that it is about 25% more expensive on the weekend (thu/fri). You can try contacting this guy: http://www.beygi.net/iranski.html

Hi Espen,
How do you manage to book a double for 410 000 rials?
The phone line to the hotel is very bad and I am unable to make a booking or find out anything about the room options.
The cheapest Tehran based tour company that I have found is quoting $85+17%tax even thought they swear that this is the hotel price without any markup. Many of them like to quote more in euros.
I am also going on the 12th. How much are the chalets?

Nick: No ski park but you can easily go off piste and probably find decent jumps.

Thomas: You will find some good equipment at the hotel, maybe 300 000 pr day. You will also find some gear for rent at small shops at the parkering lot at the bottom and on the top (cheapest; 100 000), which is a lot cheaper than the hotel, but not the same standard.
