Mountain climbing in Russian Caucasus
Climbing West Elbrus from the South- basic mountaineering program- probably the most popular program in the North Caucasus. The highest mountain in Europe - Elbrus is ideal for learning initial skills of mountaineering. Simple climbing route is extremely popular and, unfortunately, as a consequence - is overcrowded durng the season. Elbrus - is the main attraction point of all the Caucasus
Climbing East Elbrus from the East - basic mountaineering program. Climbing the same mountain, Elbrus, but in unusual way - first - East Summit, which is much less popular than the West Top, and secondly - climibng route which is much less crowded with climbers - the East Lava Flow Route. The program is a bit more complicated and much more interesting than the standard climb from the South.
In addition, from the season 2014, the number of the climbing programs we realaze in collaboration with Mountain Base "Bezengi" in the frame of our new project "Bezengi Guides"
In that section we collected some climbing alpine programs which would be interesting to the climbers of all levels - from the beginners to professionals, for whom we offer the top difficulty climbs of the world famous mountains in Bezengi region.
Climbing Peak Gestola - the mountain which simbolize whole Bezengi region - This incredibly beautiful mountain is located in the Bezengi Wall massif - and is one of the most accessible climbing objects of it. Peak Gestola climbing route is of the average level of difficulty. Participation in the program requires previous mountaineering experience.
Climbing Shkhara - one of the most difficult peaks in Caucasus - one of the Top Programs of MCS AlexClimb School. The mountain is located in the "Bezengi Wall" - most severe mountain region of Caucasus. For participation in the Shkhara climbing program you require previous mountaineering experience. Climbing Shkhara from the North by the 'Crab Route'
Climbing Dykh Tau - one of the Top Programs of MCS AlexClimb School - the second highest peak in Europe and Caucasus after Elbrus. Dukh Tau is located opposite the famous Bezengi Wall, in the so-called "Northern Area". Dykh Tau - the second highest peak of Caucasus. Dykh Tau is one of the most interesting and difficult climbing objects of Caucasus. For participation in the Shkhara climbing program you require previous mountaineering experience.
Climbing Peak MNR - exiting climbing route of the average level of difficulty, allows to work your rockclimbing skills in the real alpine conditions, improve your alpine climbing techniques and get the necessary acclimatization. The technical part of the route can be climbed in one day, making this program an optimal solution for acclimatization or training trip.
Caucasus - the mountain world and proud of Russia
Caucasus - the most easily accessible, popular and even somehow civilized mountain system in Russia. Every year, the Caucasus trails are visited by thousands of travelers and climbers, and the top of Mount Elbrus - the highest point of Europe, is constantly crowded with climbers who came to attempt this mountain from many countries of the world. Unfortunately, the political developments are now in such a way that the word "Russian Caucasus" for many people means something threatening.
As a rule, it is the opinion of people who never have been in Russia and Caucasus. Every year, more and more people came and gave Caucasus their love. It is enough to come here just once to see its hospitality and the friendliness of the local people, feel the unique feeling that give the mountain nature of the area, experience the limitless possibilities of Caucasus as a perfect vacation destination. Of course, you should not expect from Russian Caucasus the European level of service - civilization is not so deeply penetrated into these mountains yet, but certain trends are already visible - the construction of new hotels, increasing professionalism of the tourist service sector.
As for more than 15 years MCS AlexClimb School of Mountaineering and Rock Climbing organizes various climbing programs in Russian Caucasus mountains, we can say with certainty: come, Russian Caucasus is open and safe, you will get the pleasure of your trip!
Basic mountaineering objects, work with which MCS AlexClimb School of Mountaineering and Rock Climbing began over 15 years ago, are traditionally famous highest peaks of the Caucasus - Elbrus, Dykh Tau, Shkhara. In addition, we organize training and acclimatization programs in Elbrus and Bezengi areas.

Our Principles
AlexClimb Rule #1 - Safety First
From the very beginning of our activity, here nearly 16 years, the first Principle of work of School of mountaineering and rock-climbing of MCS AlexClimb is the Safety Priority. On the basis of this Principle all process of training is based, all programs and rounds are developed and carried out only within this main principle. We consider that at professional approach to development of programs, at personal discipline and correctly put motivation - occupations by mountaineering and rock-climbing are COMPLETELY safe. And from the return - all troubles and accidents in our sport come from nonprofessionalism, from ignorance or neglect by elementary standards of safety, from irrational motivation, from revaluation of own forces and opportunities. All these prerequisites we COMPLETELY EXCLUDE in our work - ours Rock-climbing, Ice climbing and Mountaineering are based on one Principle - the Safety Priority. In rock-climbing, mountaineering and ice climbing, the Priority of Safety of MCS AlexClimb-is your personal security and comfort irrespective of, than we are engaged - we train muscles and we work technology of the movement in the sports hall and on the rock climbing wall, we make the way through snowstorm to top or we relax on golden sand of the Caribbean beach after hot day of trainings on rocks. The Safety priority - the main credo of School of mountaineering and rock-climbing of MCS AlexClimb.
AlexClimb Rule #2 - Leave No Trace
Closely interacting with Nature, working with the active programs in mountains, woods, lakes and rivers, we perfectly understand the importance of carefull and respectfull bahavior towards the Nature, for its resources. From the very beginning of our outdoor-activity we adopted rules of Leave No Trace technique - the standard of behavior of the person accepted in all the civilized world in relation to environment and especially - to the wild nature. After all on the relation of people to the nature near which they exist, itself can draw dalekoidushchy conclusions on the relation of these people to... Where and as we didn't travel - we don't reserve any garbage, we try to reduce whenever possible our influence on environment to a minimum. We clear earlier zagryazyonny tourist parking of the left garbage, we take out and we take out to utilization places that to us other people left there. We consider that only thus, at personal individual consciousness of each citizen, each tourist, climber or autotraveller, we will be able to keep the nature surrounding us in its state, natural, suitable for life, - in it pledge of the healthy future for ourselves and our children.
