Virtual Mt. Elbrus Climb

5/5

Virtual experience hosted by Takhir

What you'll do

Have you ever climbed a mountain virtually?!  Now you can!  Join Takhir, born and raised at the base of Mt. Elbrus, as he guides you virtually up Mt. Elbrus, one of the 7 Summits and Europe’s highest peak at 18,510 feet.  For mountaineers, it’s everything you’ll want, as you learn the South Route itinerary, the acclimatization schedule, and what technical details are a must to make it to the top of Elbrus.  This is so much more than a climb, though, as Takhir shares personal stories, family legacies, and the role Mt. Elbrus plays in Russian and Caucasus history.  There’s something for everyone in this virtual Mt. Elbrus climb!

Meet your guide, Takhir

Hi!  My name is Takhir; I’m a mountain guide at Mt. Elbrus.  I was born and raised at the base of the mountain, and have summited Elbrus over 100 times.  I come from a family of mountaineers, dating back to my grandfather and my father, who worked for 20 years on Elbrus as a part of rescue services.  This mountain is close to my heart as my people, the Balkars, have lived here for many generations; join me as I guide to the top of Elbrus but more importantly, take you on a journey to my homeland!
