Our comfortable base camps at 3,600 m and 4,400 m, equipped with insulated tents, hot showers, hearty meals, and reliable internet access, will serve as your cozy home in the mountains. An experienced and dedicated team ensures round-the-clock safety and support at every stage of the expedition. Entrust us with your dream — and we will make your ascent unforgettable and successful.

“Asia Mountains” invites you to join an expedition to the legendary seven-thousander — Lenin Peak. This is one of the most famous and majestic summits of the Pamirs, standing at 7,134 meters, and attracting mountaineers from all over the world.

We offer an ascent via the classic route through Razdelnaya Peak - a time-tested, safe, and logical path. It is ideal for those who already have some high-altitude experience and a reliable team ready to conquer their first seven-thousander.

Although Lenin Peak is considered one of the most accessible mountains of its height, it is by no means an easy climb.

It is a demanding high-altitude challenge where you will face all the elements: thin air requiring endurance and proper acclimatization, piercing cold and strong winds, hidden glacier crevasses, and avalanche risks. But it is precisely in overcoming these trials that the true magic of Lenin Peak lies.The journey is not only through ice and rock - it is a journey within yourself.

The mountain reveals itself only to those who accept its challenge wholeheartedly, guided by clear thinking and firm resolve.

At such heights, where nature tests one’s limits, it is crucial to set aside ambition and trust the experience of those who know the mountain like the back of their hand.

If you feel the determination and the thirst for a real adventure - and are ready for the climb of a lifetime -“Asia Mountains” will help you turn this dream into reality.

During the expedition, our base camps, located at 3,600 m and 4,400 m, will become your true home amidst the harsh yet breathtaking Pamir Mountains.

Our Base Camp “Asia Mountains– Edelweiss Meadow” is a cozy haven among the picturesque lakes of Achik-Tash.

Surrounded by colorful peaks, turquoise waters, and carpets of alpine flowers, it’s the perfect place to recover your strength between acclimatization outings.

We’ve created everything you need for comfort and recovery.

You will find:

  • - Spacious and warm tents with wooden floors and soft mattresses
  • - Stable electricity and lighting, including inside each tent
  • - Hot showers and a cozy relaxation area
  • - A large dining yurt with a homely atmosphere, always offering fragrant tea and local sweets
  • - Board games and friendly evenings with climbers from all over the world
  • The same level of comfort awaits you at Camp 1, located on the moraine at 4,400 meters.

    As for communication with the outside world - we’ve installed satellite antennas, and the internet connection in our camps is now more stable than in many big cities.

    But the most important thing - and what we are truly proud of - is our team. These are the people who create the unique atmosphere in the camp, look after your safety around the clock, and know every guest by name.

    Day
    1

    Arrival in Osh. We will meet you at Osh Airport — a vibrant eastern city that will mark the beginning of your journey into the realm of great mountains.
After a warm welcome, we’ll head for breakfast, where you’ll meet the support team, receive a detailed briefing, and have time to shop for any last-minute items in a local supermarket.
Around 12:00 PM, we set out towards the majestic Pamirs.
Our route follows the legendary Pamir Highway, rightly considered one of the most beautiful roads in the world.
From your window, you’ll watch mountain passes, winding serpentines, lush pastures, colorful cliffs, and the endless sky unfold before you.

    The road climbs over the Taldyk Pass (3,615 m) before descending into the Alai Valley, where a breathtaking panorama of the Chon-Alai Range - the heart of the Pamirs - awaits you. The journey takes about five hours (300 km). Two-thirds of the way is paved, while the last section is a dirt road - but the beauty of the 
surrounding landscapes more than compensates for any minor inconvenience. By around 5:00 PM, we’ll arrive at the “Asia Mountains” Base Camp, where our friendly staff will greet you.

The camp manager will give you an orientation and show you around the camp facilities, followed by a late lunch and traditional Pamiri tea.After settling in, we recommend taking a short walk around the area — light physical activity helps your body adapt to the altitude and reduces the risk of altitude sickness.At Base Camp, you’ll have access to showers, electricity, well-lit paths, and a cozy relaxation yurt.



    As night falls, prepare for a spectacular sight - a crystal-clear starry sky. Take a moment to enjoy it… and maybe make a wish upon a falling star. 



    Day
    2

    Acclimatization hike to Petrovsky Peak  (4,830 m). Your first mountain day is all about acclimatization and inspiration.
The goal is a gentle adaptation - you’ll gradually gain altitude to help your body adjust. It’s also a great opportunity to test yourself on various terrains: grassy slopes, rocky paths, and scree sections. The route follows picturesque trails, and from the shoulder of Petrovsky Peak, you’ll be rewarded with breathtaking views of the Alai Valley, the Achik-Tash area, and numerous moraine lakes.

    Return to Base Camp in the afternoon for a delicious dinner and a cozy evening with hot tea in the company of like-minded adventurers - a perfect way to end an active day. Our Base Camp truly feels like home in the mountains - the air is easy to breathe, the silence is deeply calming, and there’s always space and comfort for everyone.
One of our greatest advantages is the small number of guests - no queues for meals, no crowds, just peace and connection with nature.

    Day
    3

    Preparation Day. Today is all about rest and recovery, giving your body time to adapt after yesterday’s hike to Petrovsky Peak. We recommend checking your gear and equipment, chatting with climbers who have already been to the higher camps this season, and getting the latest updates about the route from our guides — they’ll be happy to share insights. You can also take an easy walk to the nearby lakes or Lukovaya Meadow.

    And in the evening, when the camp grows quiet and the sky fills with millions of stars, you’ll realize that your adventure has truly begun. 

    Day
    4

    Trek to Camp 1 (4,400 m). After breakfast, we set off on the route.
Part of your luggage can be transported by pack horses, so it’s important to sort your gear in advance:

    - For the camp: pack everything that will remain behind into the special bags provided, and label them clearly.

    - For the trek: everything you’ll need en route should be securely packed, weighed, and handed over to the horsemen.

    The hike to Camp 1 takes 4–7 hours, covering 12 km with an elevation gain of about 600 meters. First, we’ll climb to the Travellers’ Pass (4,100 m) - from here, a magnificent view opens up of the glittering Lenin Glacier and Lenin Peak itself, along with a clear panorama of the entire ascent route. Next comes a traverse descent to the glacier, followed by a section along the moraine. Simply follow the marked trail — it will lead you straight to our camp. At Camp 1, you’ll be greeted with hot tea and a hearty meal. Our attentive team will help you settle in comfortably.

    
The infrastructure here is similar to that of the Base Camp:

    - Spacious tents with wooden floors

    - Electricity (from a generator operating a few hours in the evening)

    - A warm dining yurt with a stove

    - Satellite internet access is also available.

    Day
    5

    Ascent of Yukhin Peak (5,130 m). For better acclimatization, we recommend a climb to Yukhin Peak - a “home mountain” that rises directly above Camp 1.
The route is relatively easy and highly rewarding: from the summit, you’ll enjoy a stunning panoramic view of the surrounding glaciers and peaks.As a pleasant bonus, you’ll add another 5,000-meter summit to your climbing achievements!You can also plan the ascent with an overnight stay, in which case you’ll need a tent, stove, and provisions.


    However, keep in mind that a cozy tent and a hot dinner are already waiting for you back at Camp 1

    Day
    6

    Preparation Day. Spend this day as effectively as possible.
Join ice training sessions to refresh your glacier travel and safety techniques — a great opportunity to test your readiness, your partner’s coordination, and your equipment before moving higher. Make sure to rest well - tomorrow’s climb to Camp 2 (5,300 m) will be challenging.

    Day
    7

    Trekking from Camp 1 (4,400 m) to Camp 2 (5,300 m). The ascent to Camp 2 should begin early in the morning.
Our team will prepare an early breakfast so you can set off before sunrise - this helps you avoid the midday heat and soft, melting snow on the high plateau, aptly nicknamed “The Frying Pan.” As you approach the base of the north slope, put on your crampons.

    
If you don’t yet have a climbing partner, make sure to find one in advance - this section must be traversed while roped up.The route climbs steeply up the center of the north slope, skirting the icefall to the left. Caution is essential here, as the area is riddled with crevasses.
The most difficult sections are equipped with fixed ropes.

    Higher up, the route gradually veers to the right and leads onto the broad, icy plateau - the notorious “Frying Pan.”
Stay alert and attentive: this area is considered the most avalanche-prone section of the route.
Camp 2 (5,300 m) sits on a small moraine. You may set up your own tent or use one prepared by our team.
The total ascent typically takes 7 to 9 hours.

    Day
    8

    Ascent of Razdelnaya Peak (6,148 m). Today you can take it easy in the morning - departure is usually around 9:00 AM.
The climb to Razdelnaya Peak takes approximately 4 hours, covering 2.5 km with an 800-meter elevation gain. From Camp 2, the route ascends a 30–40° slope. Keep slightly to the left of the rocky outcrops until you reach the ridge — expect strong winds here.


    The most demanding section begins at 5,850 m, leading up to Camp 3 (6,100 m). The final stretch between 6,000 and 6,100 m crosses hidden crevasses, requiring full attention. It’s best to move in roped teams with crampons.

    After summiting Razdelnaya, you can either descend back to Camp 1 for a comfortable rest in our warm tents,
or stay overnight at Camp 3, using your own tent or one of the pre-installed ones.

    Day
    9

    Descent to Base Camp (3,600 m). Experienced alpinists who climb Lenin Peak annually recommend descending to Base Camp (3,600 m) after completing your acclimatization rotation.
This is a crucial part of the summit strategy. At altitude, your body is constantly fighting oxygen deprivation and cannot fully recover.
Descending just 800 meters provides what is impossible higher up: deep sleep, normal appetite, and real recovery.
Your body switches from survival mode to adaptation mode.Remaining at 4,400 meters only continues to drain your energy reserves, but after resting lower, you’ll return stronger and ready for the summit push.

    Day
    10

    Rest and Recovery. Use these two days wisely, rest at Achik-Tash is not just downtime, it’s a chance to discover one of the most beautiful corners of the Pamirs and recharge before your final ascent. Take a walk to the turquoise Tulpar-Kul Lake - its crystal-clear waters reflect the snow-capped peaks like a mirror, creating unforgettable impressions and incredible photos. You can also hike to the picturesque summit of Ginger Kate (~4,250 m).
This easy yet scenic climb takes only a few hours and rewards you with panoramic views of the entire area and the slopes of Lenin Peak.
It’s an ideal acclimatization hike and a perfect boost of motivation before the days ahead.

    Day
    11

    Rest and Recovery. One more day for recovery and recreation.

    Day
    12

    Ascent to Camp 1 (4,400 m). We repeat the now-familiar route to Camp 1. This time, it will feel shorter and easier thanks to your improved acclimatization.

    Day
    13

    Ascent to Camp 2 (5,300 m). Make sure you are fully ready for the climb. Check your condition with our expedition doctor. If you have even the slightest doubt about your health, please postpone your ascent.

    Day
    14

    Ascent to Camp 3 (6,100 m). After assessing your condition in the morning, you can take your time to get ready and leave for Camp 3 (6,100 m) no later than 9:00 a.m. Since the route is already familiar, rely on your previous experience from the acclimatization climb. Upon arrival, you will need to set up your tent or use one of our pre-installed tents.

    Day
    15

    Summit Day – Lenin Peak (7,134 m). The summit ascent of Lenin Peak (7,134 m) is a long and technically demanding stage, requiring a very early start from Camp 3 (6,100 m) between 3:00 and 4:00 a.m.
 The total ascent time is 10–14 hours, covering a distance of approximately 12 km with an elevation gain of about ±1,034 m.

    
***A critical safety rule must be strictly observed: If the summit has not been reached by 14:00, the descent must begin immediately.

    The route begins with a traverse in a southeast direction, followed by a descent to the saddle, where there are several dangerous, often hidden crevasses — this section should be negotiated while roped up.From the saddle, the route continues up a steep rocky slope, leading onto a broad ridge plateau. After traversing the gentle ridge, climbers reach the key obstacle — a narrow ice section known as “The Knife”, with an incline of 35–50° and a length of 60–80 meters. Due to the high risk of falls and strong gusting winds, crampons and roped movement are absolutely mandatory when crossing “The Knife.” Beyond “The Knife,” the route follows a rocky ridge and then climbs a mixed rock-and-snow slope to reach the Parachutists Plateau (6,900–7,000 m) - a wide snowfield that is often covered with deep snow, making progress slow and navigation difficult. In poor visibility conditions, it is easy to lose direction, so GPS navigation is essential.


    The final part of the ascent is a long climb up the summit dome, consisting of snow and scree, leading to the summit, marked by a large stone cairn and a bust of V. I. Lenin. The descent follows the same route back to Camp 3

    Day
    16

    Descent to Camp 1 (4,400 m). Descend along the same route. Remember, going down can be more dangerous than climbing up — stay alert. The “Frying Pan” section must be crossed early in the morning before it warms up and the snow becomes soft. Overnight in Camp 1 (4,400 m).

    Day
    17

    Return to Base Camp (3,600 m). Pack your gear carefully before heading down - make sure you leave nothing behind. If you wish, you can send your load by horse for an additional fee.
In the evening, enjoy a celebratory dinner and awards ceremony for all summit climbers.

    Day
    18

    Reserve Day. This extra day is reserved in case of bad weather or insufficient acclimatization before the summit attempt.

    Day
    19

    Return to Osh. The journey will take approximately 5 hours and cover about 280 km.
 You will travel to Osh through the picturesque Alai Valley and over two high mountain passes - Taldyk Pass (3,615 m) and Chiirchik Pass (2,408 m).
The return road will offer a new perspective: you’ll be able to fully appreciate the stunning beauty of this region — the vivid palette of multicolored mountains, lush greenery, and rich alpine vegetation.
We recommend making a stop at Taldyk Pass to enjoy the breathtaking panorama of majestic peaks and capture these magical views as a lasting memory.


    Upon arrival in Osh and hotel check-in, if time permits, you may visit the sacred mountain Suleiman-Too. From its summit, you’ll have a magnificent view of the Fergana Valley, and at sunset, the scenery becomes truly unforgettable.
Overnight at a hotel in Osh.
