MCS AlexClimb Mountaineering School
The cost of a mistake in the mountains can be too high. Don't neglect the opportunity to learn from others' experiences.
Knowledge is safety.
Competent preparation is a form of respect for the mountains and for yourself.
Mountaineering is not just a sport or a divertisment. Among other things, it is the art of anticipating, understanding, and respecting the limits of control and one's capabilities.

Pobeda (Victory) Peak, Tien Shan
When planning a mountain route, even in the form of independent trip, it is crucial to have as much information about the route as possible, preferably directly from people with significant mountaineering experience and up-to-date information about the route itself and the area.

Communism Peak (Somoni), Pamir
This is an important stage of professional preparation for any mountaineering or hiking route in the mountains, regardless of whether it is planned to be undertaken with a guide or independently.
Dykh Tau Peak, Caucasus
The clearer and more precise is your understanding of what awaits you on the way to your goal, the more likely you will be able to achieve it. And, most importantly, that ensures the higher physical safety of you and your companions along the way.

Mount Cook, New Zealand
With 30 years of extensive experience of climbing and organizing mountain trips, from simple treks to the most challenging technical climbs, I offer you a virtual guided ascent to the mountain of your dream.
We will discuss all necessary preparation elements via group videoconference:
- Route selection
- Evaluation of obvious and hidden risks
- Logistics and detailed planning
- Analysis of technical route elements and ascent tactics
- Equipment lists
- GPS route track with section-by-section commentary

Fitz Roy Summit, Patagonia
The "Virtual Ascent" will be illustrated with photos and videos from the route. Participants will have access to GPS coordinates and track, filed equipment lists, and personalized preparation recommendations.
- Format: Group video conference (Zoom, Google Meet)
- Duration: 2 hours
- Price: 200 euros
Please send me an email to ensure if extended consultation is available on the route you are interested in.

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.
