Grading types of trips:
In order to inform trippers about our plans,
we explain our classification and grading of
them. so people who want to join with us to
trip could choose any kind of the trips that
are suitable for them according to their
ability, mood and experiences. It is
mentioned that these gradations are
according to different seasons. It is clear
that because of cold weather in winter
holding these trips have some more problems,
though we do our level best. First we,
"kalout", classified our trips to three
general groups: cultural-historical,
ecotourism and combined these two types of
trips. Among of these group according to
roots, conditions and level of activities we
grading our trips from 1 up to 4 degree.
Cultural-historical trips
These types of our trips are included
visiting the historical places, historical
and wonderful villages, life of nomads and
many traditional customs and ceremonies in
our country. Since there is no any sport
activity in these types of trips they are
befitting for all ages but some people who
have bodily defect.
Ecotourism trips
These types of trips are usually with sports
activities. During a trip tourists visit
many and various sights, such as mountains,
forests, falls, springs, costal promenade,
rivers, marshes, islands, salty deserts, and
wildlife refuges in so many wonderful lands.
It is interesting to say that some of these
lands are complete, unique and far away.
Along side these trips tourists may visit
many attractive villages. Ecotourism trips
are arranged according their activities to
different plans like tracking, climbing
mountains, rock climbing, bicycle, ski and
jockeying. Among these plans, relation to
their hardness, plans of climbing, tracking
and bicycle, are grading to four levels.
Plans of rock climbing have been graded in
keeping with international standard. Rest of
the plans have not any special grades.
Following some gradation of ecotourism plans
are explained:
A: tracking plans, most of the Kalout plans
are in this field. These plans of trips are
included tracking on forests, national
parks, protective area, villages, the
countries, slops, deserts and salt desert.
Gradation of this plans from easy up to hard
trips are:
Tracking grade 1: this grade included
easiest plan of tracking that has less
sports activities than other plans. All
people who enjoyed of bodily health could
take part in this plan. Tracking would be
done on places that they are lower than
3000M high, and usually, on clear roots with
slight declivity. Consuming times for this
type of tracking is 1-3 hours. For example
"sharestanak" plan.
Grade 2: tracking in this plan would be done
on roots that have a little more
declivities, consuming times is 3-5 hours.
For example fifth station of "Tochal" plan.
Grade 3: this type of tracking would be done
on roots with slight and sharp declivities
and higher point. Consuming of times is
often 6-7 hours a day, of course it might be
changed, one day more than 7, other day less
than 6 hours. In these plans trippers
usually stay in camping or local houses. For
example "jangle abr" plan.
Grade 4: this type of tracking is so hard
than the others. Tracking would be done
during whole day on roots that they have
almost sharp declivities. Consuming of times
might be changed. Trippers may stay in
camping or local houses. Example "Ab bar to
shaft" plan.
B: climbing plans
This kind of plan are included all of the
climbing that would be done at over 3000M
high point on rough and stony roots. It is
clear that such climbing in winter have more
problems. Resulting tripper must be enjoying
of healthy body and soul.
Grading these types of plans is:
Climbing grade 1: climbing on clear root at
3000M high in one day. Example: climbing to
pick of "Kolackchal" plan.
Grade 2: climbing to picks that they have
over 4000M high. This trip takes more than
one day. Climbing must be practice well
before. Example: picks of "Tochal, Alvand,
Shirkouh".
Grade 3: in these types of plan mountaineers
in addition good experience, he or she must
be tested for problems that might accrue on
higher picks, as well prepare him or herself
as view of body or soul health. Example:
picks of "Damavand, Alamkouh and Sabalan"
plans.
Grade 4: winter climbing, adding to
considering all of the points that mentioned
above, mountaineers must bring in suitable
equipments to climbing. Consuming times is
almost consuming times in summer. Example
picks of "Damavand, Alamkouh" plans.
Combination tripe, including ecotourism,
cultural and historical plans. These types
of trips usually takes a long times rather
than special trips. In addition ecotourism,
tracking, visiting cultural-historical
places and villages where they are far away
and some of them are not known yet. Tripper
could see kinds of ceremony, customs and
celebrations of different Iranian tribes. As
well as tourists find out with process of
making handicrafts. Furthermore they could
attend in some ceremony or festivals such as
picking flowers and fruits, shearing,
milking, felting, matting, carpet-weaving
and preparing local dishes. In these plans
trippers discern more about way of
villagers' life. It must be mentioned that
usually ecotourism in these plans has light
or mild degree. Tourists could visit markets
and texture of cities at the beginning or
end of the trip. These verities of plans
make the trip more and more beautiful and
remindful. Example " from Parseh to
Parishan, Elami civilization on sunrise's
country and Spakho" plans.
