    The tunnel is a relief, so that you do not have to drive over the Anzob Pass, but also take this tunnel in the car or bus and not on the bike.

     Construction of the tunnel began in 1988 during the Soviet era and was continued in 1999 by an Iranian consortium. The tunnel was opened in 2006, but until 2015 the passage was an adventurous undertaking. The tunnel was not lit and there was no ventilation system. The biggest problem was the water in the tunnel, some of which was up to half a meter high. In 2015 the tunnel was closed, Iran was obliged to remedy the shortcomings and was reopened in November.

      Still wouldn’t recommend cycling through it. Also maybe avoid trying to cross it on a friday, there were very few “hitchable” transporters on the road.

        I think the photo shows the south entrance. I added the north entrance. 😎
