Guided Ascent of Lenin Peak (7,134 m)

Classic Program from Achik-Tash Base Camp

Expedition Overview

Lenin Peak (7,134 m) is one of the world’s most popular and achievable 7,000-meter summits—often considered the perfect step into true high-altitude mountaineering. Located in the Alay Range (Pamirs), it offers a classic glaciated route with big-mountain conditions, dramatic scenery, and a straightforward expedition structure.

The Classic Route does not involve technical rock climbing, but it absolutely requires solid high-altitude fitness and confident movement on glaciers: crampon technique, rope-team travel, crevasse safety, and steady pacing over long summit-day hours. At 7,000+ meters, even “non-technical” terrain becomes serious—cold, wind, altitude effects, and whiteout risk are all real factors.

Logistics Made Easy

Achik-Tash Base Camp (3,600 m) is accessible by vehicle, and Osh has an international airport, making the expedition logistics among the most convenient of any 7,000-meter climb in Central Asia.

Who This Climb Is For

To join the guided ascent, you should have:

Good overall physical fitness and endurance
Basic mountaineering skills (crampons, ice axe basics, rope travel)
Previous altitude experience (recommended)
Strong motivation and readiness to work in a high-mountain environment

Achik-Tash Base Camp & Camp 1: Comfort, Recovery, and Real Expedition Support

Our stationary camps at 3,600 m (Base Camp) and 4,400 m (Camp 1) are designed to maximize acclimatization and recovery between climbs. The infrastructure is one of the key strengths of this program: you can rest properly, eat well, dry gear, and maintain communication—critical advantages on a long high-altitude expedition.

What makes our camp service stand out:

Well-organized camp operations with experienced staff and clear daily logistics
Comfortable accommodation formats and reliable camp facilities
Strong focus on climber support: briefings, route updates, safety coordination, and practical help on the ground
High-quality meals and consistent service, which significantly improves recovery and performance at altitude

Professional Guides You Can Trust

Our guides are highly qualified mountain professionals with extensive experience on Lenin Peak and other major high-altitude objectives worldwide. They understand the mountain’s weather patterns, the route’s key hazards, and the details that make a summit push efficient and safe.
