Russia: Mt Elbrus


  • UAE Trekkers Kabardino-Balkarian Republic, 361616 Russia (map)

We miss our annual climb of Mt Elbrus, the highest peak in Europe and one of the prized ‘7 summits’. Elbrus is a challenging mountain that will push you to your physical limits, and pass them all while possibly in very crazy weather conditions. Training is essential, luckily, our expert, Amy, has climbed Elbrus 5 times and can help you prepare the best way possible for this climb.

This is a slightly technical climb requiring mountaineering boots but all technical gear including down jackets can be rented on site.

Our trip itinerary includes an additional day of private acclimatization and corresponds to the Fly Dubai flights direct from Dubai to Mineralye Vody.

Also included are the VIP Rooms with toilets in the top rooms of the huts.
