Damavand Ascent Camping Site
Often referred to by several names, Damavand Camp is also known as the Damavand Base Camp, Damavand Camp II, or the second camping site of the mountain. Locally, it is called the Goosfand-Sara (گوسفند سرا ), which translates to "sheepfold," or the Saheb al-Zaman Mosque (مسجد صاحب الزمان ) campsite. This popular stop is a key location for hikers and mountaineers preparing for their ascent of Mount Damavand, offering basic amenities and a place to rest before tackling higher altitudes.

This Damavand Camp is the most popular and accessible starting point for trekking expeditions on Iran’s iconic Mount Damavand. Known for its simplicity and convenience, this base camp offers essential facilities, including a small mountain refuge, the Saheb al-Zaman Mosque, and a traditional sheepfold. Situated at an elevation of 3,040 meters, with coordinates Latitude 35.9020° and Longitude 52.1094°, it serves as the primary launching spot for climbers tackling the mountain’s south route, particularly during the summer season. As the key base camp, it provides an ideal resting place before embarking on the ascent of Damavand’s towering slopes.
