All news: 23 August 2025

August 23. We did it! The group "Starпёрс&kids" climbed to the top of the highest peak in Europe!

The youngest climber is 13 years old. The oldest is 64. It was not easy for everyone, but everyone coped. I would especially like to note the initiator of this entire event - Sergey Stepanov. He not only gathered a team of like-minded people, but also took four children to the top. And by the way, he plans to do the project "Seven Volcanoes" with children. And he invites the same crazy parents with their children to participate in the project, which he dubbed "Superkids". The next mountain in their plans is Orizaba in November (Mexico). Then - Giluwe in May.

Special admiration for the couple Alexey and Elena, at 64 years old, being in the mountains for the first time, they climbed to the top!

This evening we held a ceremonial awards ceremony, and then went to the party of the 7 Summits Club and AI "Closing of the Elbrus Season"

A guide of the 7 Summits Club Evgeny Fedyunin reports from the Elbrus region:

Hello everyone! The 7 Summits Club group "El'Barso" used a great chance and climbed on the top of Western Elbrus 5642m! Full team, 100% ascent! The weather was perfect. In the evening, there was a gala dinner with awards for climbers and a discussion of plans for new mountains!

Take care! See you in the mountains! Good weather and good luck to everyone!

The Supergirls team climbed the summit of Elbrus in 100%. It was hard for everyone, but the weather was for us, just ideal conditions. Wind 0 all day. Everyone is down and everyone is already waiting for new trips with the 7 Summits Club. Hooray!

That day, about 400 people went to climb. Before the summit, we got into a queue of 150 climbers who just wanted to stand on the summit. It's time for the leadership of the KBR to think about building a large platform, since everyone who wants to can no longer fit on the top of Elbrus. And make the ascent along the fixed ropes a paid one.

Dmitry Semenov, the guide of the 7 Summits Club, reports from the Elbrus region:

 Greetings from the Elbrus region from the super team "People with Cats". Yesterday, our whole group stood on the highest peak of our homeland, as well as all of Europe. In excellent weather, at a good pace and in good condition, we climbed.

The 7 Summits Club guide Viktor Volodin sends from Georgia:

Greetings to everyone from the "Syty Kazbek" group! And the well-fed will not enlighten the hungry. And so we put a bold point in the form of khinkali! Yesterday, the entire group in full health and sanity climbed to the top of Kazbek. Congratulations and awards to everyone!

Dear subscribers, everything is fine! Don't worry - everything is fine with our group! There was just no connection for a day. In the mountains (and especially in the jungle!) this is normal.

So, our second day of the expedition:

Day 2. That day the route passed through real tropical jungle. Thick greenery, huge ferns, vines, trees reaching into the sky... Sometimes it seemed like we were in a scene from Avatar.

Along the way, we encountered strange bugs and even a couple of curious monkeys. A bright bird similar to a toucan flew by somewhere nearby. The nature here is truly alive and amazing!

The mood is cheerful, everyone feels great - energy is in full swing, eyes are shining!

By evening, we reached the Mandara Hut camp. And once again, the participants were pleasantly surprised by the level of organization and care from the 7 Summits Club: delicious dinner, hot tea, a warm welcome and comfortable overnight stay.

Tomorrow we continue the ascent - wait for new news as soon as there is a connection!
