I climbed it alone. It’s a twin summit semi-active volcano,actually the summit is similar to Elbrus’ summit. One of them is higher without sulfur crater called Narkooh and another one is Madehkooh with a crater away steaming vents.
It’s in heritage UNESCO site, unique and beautiful where has the best mountain shelter of Iran’s mountains (4 floor ) .
All mountains around are less than 3000 m.
It takes about 3 hours to climb from basecamp to shelter ,then 2h to the summit (Madehkooh)
Just stay away from sulfur vents.
Good luck
