Event details

Good evening everyone! I am going to hike Mt Elbrus from the North side 16- 26.05.2022 with professional guides from https://ganamana.ru This particular date they have 5 spaces left today. ๐Ÿ” Mount Elbrus is the highest and most prominent peak in Russia and Europe. It is situated in the western part of the Caucasus and is the highest peak of the Caucasus Mountains. The dormant volcano rises 5,642 m (18,510 ft) above sea level; it is the highest stratovolcano in Eurasia, as well as the tenth-most prominent peak in the world. The mountain stands in Southern Russia, in the Russian republic of Kabardino-Balkaria. (Wikipedia) ๐Ÿ• Safe, beautiful and rich in the number of attractions along the route of climbing Elbrus. On the north side, there is practically no civilization; in the meadow in front of the foot of the volcano there are two campings, the Ministry of Emergencies and a cozy wooden cafe. On the route from the north, you will pass powerful acclimatization, which will allow even a beginner from 18 to 55 years old to enter Elbrus. The route to the top from a height of 3800 meters is shorter here than from the south, there are no crowds of people and overtaking snow groomers. In the northern Elbrus region there are monuments of history, archeology, a mass of medicinal narzans that increase hemoglobin and breathtaking natural landscapes. The serpentine road to the ancient resort of Dzhily-Su will be remembered for a lifetime! On the ascent from the north, you will see nature as it appeared before the participants of the first ascent of Elbrus in 1829. Do not hesitate in this route, climbing Elbrus from the north will not require any special skills from you or beyond your capabilities, all theoretical and practical lessons will take place during the event. The northern climbing option is striking in its beauty; it is available to everyone in good and average physical shape. Once you visit this place, you will be drawn here all your life.
