Description

Sahand is an eroded stratovolcanic massif in East Azerbaijan, Iran, south of Tabriz. Wikidata records 3,710 m, while Wikipedia gives 3,707 m for its highest point, Kamal; this profile follows the Wikidata elevation. The massif contains roughly 17 summits above 3,000 m and consists mainly of dacite and related felsic rocks. A 2017 local note by Rahim Yari describes an approach from Bostanabad through Khachik and mentions a shelter and springs present at the time. It complements the linked multi-summit videos, but does not confirm present access or facility conditions.

Routes

Boz Daghi–Darvishlar

A two-summit Sahand outing documented by Mohammad Asadi. The source title identifies Boz Daghi and Darvishlar; duration, distance, trailhead, and grade are unavailable in the metadata and are therefore not estimated.

Lintas empat puncak Pelesar–Boz Dagh–Darvishlar–Kamal / Four-summit traverse

A four-summit outing identified in Esmaeilseifi46’s video title. The source names Pelesar, Boz Dagh, Darvishlar, and Kamal, but its metadata does not establish the trailhead, detailed sequence, distance, time, or grade.

Pendekatan Bostanabad–Khachik / Bostanabad–Khachik approach

Rahim Yari’s 2017 note describes access from Bostanabad through Qarababa, Dahnab, Qarachay Haji Ali, and Khachik. This is an approach description, not a summit GPS track; it does not provide walking time or a grade.

Climbing Experiences

Five climbing videos document different objectives in the Sahand massif: a four-summit outing, Boz Daghi–Darvishlar, Sahand, and northern Ligvan Kamali. A 2017 local note adds access information from Bostanabad through Khachik. Distinguish the summit names when planning a trip; this historical account does not establish current access conditions.
