Come with me on this 10-day expedition to Mount Elbrus (5642 meters) and climb the highest peak in Europe!
This 10-day program offers the possibility of ascending one of the Seven Summits. Located in the Caucasus mountains, near the border with Georgia, Mount Elbrus is one of the most beautiful mountains in the world.
The route I have chosen is quite easy, and it will be a great opportunity for climbers to learn more about acclimatization techniques, which will be essential for those who wish to climb higher mountains in the future. We will be climbing Elbrus along with Ivan, a local IFMGA-certified guide, who knows this mountain like the back of his hand.
Take into account, however, that Mount Elbrus should not be underestimated at all. Uncertain weather conditions make the company of a guide essential.
I will be happy to safely guide you during the entire ascent and make sure you have an experience of a lifetime. Keep in mind that this famous mountain can be climbed and descended on foot or or on skis.
If you want to join me on this guided 10-day expedition, request to book this trip!
If you are looking for a less challenging mountaineering trip, you can also join me on this mountaineering course in Sierra Nevada.
