Expedition to Lenin Peak with Ak-Sai Travel.

January 24, 2019

Expedition to Lenin Peak with Ak-Sai Travel.

Lenin Peak, that situated at the border between Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan, is the third high from five 7000m peaks on the territory of the Post Soviet Union Space. The classical route to the Lenin Peak does not have any steep rock or icy areas; it takes no special technical trainings or huge alpinist experience to go up. All mentioned features characterize the Peak as one of the most accessible 7000 m peaks. BUT! We have to remember that the actual height of Lenin Peak 7134 m, and behind the apparent availability of the mount we have serious risks with altitude. Successful climb demands responsible way of organization of any expedition.

At the footsteps of Lenin Peak, Ak Sai Travel set its own tent camp and started welcoming guests since 2003. Our base camp operates from the 1st of July till the 31st of August. There were more than 500 tourists in our camp from different parts of the world every year.  Every year we welcome hundreds of alpinists who appreciate their own safety and high quality of the provided service as this is what Ak-Sai Travel put on top of priority.

We offer to our clients regular schedule of check-in and check-out to/from Base camp. There is our own auto park, so you don’t need to wait for the bus or hope for the companions in Osh city to take you to the Lenin Peak. All our drivers are extremely experienced, working with us many years and understand the area and roads better than anybody. Also, starting from the 2018, we provide to our clients extra service to take to the “Onion field” and back by 4WD jeep in term to save time and power for the serious climbing.
