Old Hut (a.k.a. VIP Hut), located at 4210m

Managed by the Mount Damavand Group, the Old Hut at Camp 3 of Mount Damavand was completed in 1966.

Offering more Iranian-style hospitality and a warmer atmosphere compared to the New Hut, it is also referred to as Camp 3 VIP Hut among mountaineering enthusiasts.
