He had already hiked this route in spring, and when he heard that I wasn\u2019t particularly interested in seeing Daryasar during spring or summer\u2014and that I was deeply drawn to its winter charm\u2014he eagerly joined me on this winter adventure.<\/p>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: left;\">Asal Mahalleh<\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Asal Mahalleh was the first stop on our way to Daryasar.<br \/>\nThis is where you have to park your car and enter the hiking trail that passes through a forest completely blanketed in white.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">In Asal Mahalleh, I noticed a car with a 29 T license plate parked in front of a small shop. I assumed it belonged to a visitor like us. But as soon as we stepped inside, the shop owner\u2014his face lit up with excitement\u2014asked me before I could even say anything: \u201cAre you from Kermanshah?\u201d<br \/>\nWe chatted for a bit, and after buying a few things, we set out toward the beloved Daryasar trail\u2026!<\/p>\n<div class=\"w-gallery fit_cover wp_gallery type_grid action_popup_image ratio_1x1 count_3\" style=\"--columns:3;--items-gap:8px;\"><div class=\"w-gallery-list\"><div class=\"w-gallery-item\"><div class=\"w-gallery-item-img\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"http:\/\/rejaw.ir\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Daryasar2-1024x683.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\u062f\u0634\u062a \u062f\u0631\u06cc\u0627\u0633\u0631\" srcset=\"http:\/\/rejaw.ir\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Daryasar2-1024x683.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/rejaw.ir\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Daryasar2-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/rejaw.ir\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Daryasar2.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/div><a class=\"w-gallery-item-link\" aria-label=\"\u062f\u0634\u062a \u062f\u0631\u06cc\u0627\u0633\u0631\" href=\"http:\/\/rejaw.ir\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Daryasar2.jpg\" title=\"\u062f\u0634\u062a \u062f\u0631\u06cc\u0627\u0633\u0631\"><\/a><\/div><div class=\"w-gallery-item\"><div class=\"w-gallery-item-img\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"http:\/\/rejaw.ir\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Daryasar3-1024x683.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\u062f\u0634\u062a \u062f\u0631\u06cc\u0627\u0633\u0631\" srcset=\"http:\/\/rejaw.ir\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Daryasar3-1024x683.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/rejaw.ir\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Daryasar3-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/rejaw.ir\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Daryasar3.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/div><a class=\"w-gallery-item-link\" aria-label=\"\u062f\u0634\u062a \u062f\u0631\u06cc\u0627\u0633\u0631\" href=\"http:\/\/rejaw.ir\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Daryasar3.jpg\" title=\"\u062f\u0634\u062a \u062f\u0631\u06cc\u0627\u0633\u0631\"><\/a><\/div><div class=\"w-gallery-item\"><div class=\"w-gallery-item-img\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"http:\/\/rejaw.ir\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Daryasar4-1024x683.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\u062f\u0634\u062a \u062f\u0631\u06cc\u0627\u0633\u0631\" srcset=\"http:\/\/rejaw.ir\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Daryasar4-1024x683.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/rejaw.ir\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Daryasar4-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/rejaw.ir\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Daryasar4.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/div><a class=\"w-gallery-item-link\" aria-label=\"\u062f\u0634\u062a \u062f\u0631\u06cc\u0627\u0633\u0631\" href=\"http:\/\/rejaw.ir\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Daryasar4.jpg\" title=\"\u062f\u0634\u062a \u062f\u0631\u06cc\u0627\u0633\u0631\"><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: left;\">The Forest Route<\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Almost 80% of the forest trail from Asal Mahalleh toward the Daryasar plain is steep, so you should be prepared for it\u2014especially if you\u2019re hiking in winter, as it definitely comes with its own challenges!<br \/>\nIt\u2019s preferable to bring a trekking pole with you.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The trail is incredibly beautiful. You can enjoy every single moment of it. There\u2019s no need to carry water, as there\u2019s a spring along the way, and once you reach the plain, there\u2019s also piped spring water available near the cabins.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:
