项目介绍
This is the quickest way to summit Elbrus, accessible to anyone. We offer this tour year-round and exclusively in a private format. Such an ascent is easier than any standard climb on Elbrus with acclimatization, as participants do not experience oxygen deprivation. All oxygen equipment elements are duplicated, like in diving, with an oxygen supply enough for 20 hours of breathing, thus completely eliminating equipment issues at altitude.

Meeting and Preparation
We'll meet you at the Mineralnye Vody Airport or or Tbilisi (TBS) or Kutaisi (KUT) at any time (transfer from Georgia is not included in the tour price). Transfer to our office - equipment fitting and backpack preparation. In your summit backpack, there will be an oxygen equipment set: a 4-liter cylinder, mask, and regulator. Another full set will be with your guide - it's a spare and usually not used. One oxygen cylinder lasts for 10 hours of continuous use. After preparations, hotel check-in and dinner.

Enjoy lunch at a local restaurant with traditional dishes like Shorpa, Khychin, and tea from local herbs with cone jam. Then, we take the cable car to ascend the slope of Elbrus and settle into the hut. A short walk and training in essential technical skills: you'll learn how to use crampons, ice axes, mountain walking, and proper breathing techniques. Early rest to get enough sleep before midnight.

Summit Day
We wake up at midnight and use a snowcat to reach 4700-5100m. The climb continues on foot. Oxygen masks are used from the start, but you can remove them whenever you wish, even at the summit. The ascent typically takes 3-6 hours, and the descent about 2 hours, using the snowcat for part of the way down. We take the cable car for the final descent. Lunch features Jalbaur and homemade Ayran. Afterwards, we transfer back to Pyatigorsk, with an airport transfer timed for flights after 20:00 or the next day.
