What awaits you

Do you want to climb your first 5000 meters mountain? Do you have some experience climbing mountains and good physical condition? We propose you to climb with us Yukhin peak (5130 meters) is a beautiful mountain of 5000 meters which is located a short distance from Camp 1 (4400 meters) of Lenin peak. On this route there are no steep ice slopes or very complicated rocky parts, so no additional equipment other than the usual mountain equipment will be necessary. Most of the time you will walk on a thin layer of snow. The slope in some parts of the route is about 20-30° maximum, so most people are capable of tackling it. Just be careful with proper acclimatization and you will return home with your certificate of having climbed your first 5000m peak!
