It’s absolutely mind-baffling that Iran, this land of peace and security, that is home to the hottest places on earth in its deserts, has almost a dozen of amazing ski resorts. And if one was to come up with a list of the most famous and the popular ones, Dizin Ski Resort, Shemshak Ski Resort, and Darbandsar Ski Resort should be at the top of the list. To get to Dizin Resort, you have to take Chalus i.e. 59 road heading out of Tehran form the northwest of the city. It’ll be a 140 km mountainous ride and it’ll take you around 2 hours to get here. To get to Shemshak or Darbandsar resorts and their hotel i.e Shemshak Hotel, you have to take Babaei Highway and then Lashgarak Road heading out of Tehran from the northeast of the city. It’ll be a 70 km mountainous ride and it’ll take you around an hour and half to get there from the capital. Now, although Dizin is further away from the capital, it’s definitely the best resort in Iran. I have personally been to many ski resorts around the world, but nothing can top my unforgettable skiing experience on the powdery snow of Dizin slopes.

Dizin Ski Resort and the Hostels and Hotels in Dizin

There are two big, famous and popular hotels and one modest but warm hostel around Dizin Ski Resort. The most popular and also the most expensive option is Dizin Hotel which is right next to the resort. The location offered by this hotel in Dizin is most convenient because It’s only a 500-meter walk to the room where you can buy your Dizin ski pass. The second most popular option is Gajereh Hotel in Dizin and despite being located at a distance of around 3 km from the resort, it offers free shuttle service to Dizin slopes every morning, and back to the hotel in the afternoon. The third option is Seven Hostel in Dizin that is the Dizin branch of Seven Hostels Group in Iran. This hostel is located at a distance of 4 km from the resort and just like Gejereh Hotel offers free transportation to the resort and back. There are both dormitories and private rooms at this hostel in Dizin and despite its modest size and budget rooms prices, its TripAdvisor reviews are way more flattering than those of the two big hotels.

Renting Ski Equipment at Ski Rentals Around Dizin Ski Resort

Unless you are going to experience ski touring in Dizin and will need very good and professional equipment to ski off-piste through the mountains of Alborz Mountain Range, you don’t need to worry about anything. There are several ski rentals at and around Dizin ski Resort where you can easily rent your ski equipment. Except for the socks and the hat that are for sale, you can rent all the other items and depending on the number of the items, it’ll cost you from 15 to at most 25 USD per day. There is one very important point that the foreign tourist should bear in mind; Iranians have their own internationally isolated banking system. So, while they can easily use their Iranian debit cards anywhere in this country, the foreign Visa and Master cards are literally useless here. So, bring along enough cash!

Dizi Ski Resort Ski Season, Ski Pass and Prices

The skiing season at Dizin Ski Resort starts from around Dec 15 and lasts until around April 15. The reason for this relatively long skiing season at this mostly hot and dry country is the high altitude at which Iran’s ski resorts including Dizin are located. Dizin resort is located at 3600 meters above the sea level, and that’s maybe why the snow on Dizin slopes are so amazingly powdery. As far as the ski pass is concerned, it’ll cost you around 25 USD to enter the resort and you can ski from 8 am in the morning till 4 pm at which the resort stops working.

The second way, that is the relatively expensive but easy way, is that you book your Dizin taxi with Iran Seven Group's Transportation services.
