Exclusive mountain climbing program "Climbing Nevado Illimani, Normal route" with MCS AlexClimb Guides
If you are flying to La Paz by plane, like most tourists visiting Bolivia (another popular alternative to the plane - international bus) do not forget to ask when registering to give you a window seat on the right side - would be a shame to miss one of the most spectacular views of the main peaks of Cordillera Real when approaching the La Paz. Among these peaks, directly under the wing of the aircraft there will be seen the dazzling white Summit of the considerable height - no error possible - you will find yourself face to face with Nevado Illimani, the Bolivian Beauty. And beauty - this is not a lyrical epithet, although it is not necessary to have lots of imagination to call this mountain - beautiful, even more because it is very true. The name of this mountain - Illimani can be translated from the Bolivian Quechua as just Beauty. This beautiful Nevado Illimani is very popular with hikers and climbers because of the developed infrastructure and a choice of routes, convenient access and approaches. On the Nevado Illimani classic route there are no mountain huts, but as a rule, the sites of stationary camping are quite comfortable and located in accordance with the standard climbing schedule. After Huayna Potosi, Illimani is the second popular climbing object of the Cordillera Real - because of Illimani significant altitude, ascension of that mountain take a bit longer time and is harder than climbing Huayna Potosi.
The First Rule, by which we are guided in the development of our mountain programs - is safety. Professional Guides lead the group, the highest quality certificated equipment and the most modern navigation equipment are used. This guarantees the highest possible level of your safety in the mountains, which is the most important side of our work.

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.
