From Sand Dunes to Mountain Peaks

With a continental type of climate Iran has cold winters and hot summers prevalent across the plateau. There are large deserts with less than 13mm precipitation in one year and high mountains and rain forests with the maximum of 1400mm annual rain fall which creates quite a diverse climate where you encounter all four seasons at one time as you move from the Persian Gulf in the south to the Caspian Sea on the north of Iran. Your trip to Iran can be outstanding for it is one of the few destinations where you can go skiing—near Tehran, and proceed to go on a trek under the sun in the central deserts— near Yazd or Isfahan, or prepare for a beach holiday and swim in the Persian Gulf in one of its fascinating islands in just one trip.
