Iran, pistes and village roads
 

Those who've travelled there would you recommend travelling Iran countryside on smaller roads and pistes? Are they more dangerous in terms of traffic and bad road conditions? Will people be too (intensly) curious on villages to foreigners?

We'd like to see more countryside on some places than to waste our time on big roads where's nothing to see...

Cheers, Margus

Hi Margus,

we have been to Iran lately and traveled mainly the big roads. To be honest, lots of Iran is desert area anyway and there aren't to many choices of roads to take, especially when heading towards Pakistan. The main roads where excellent and there wasn't to much traffic anyway unless you got closer to biger towns. But Iranians drive quite fast and we are sure the driving won't be much different on the back roads.

Cheers
