Crimea 2021

 On September 24, managers and guides of the 7 Summits Club, as part of a corporate trip, climbed the crest of the Ilyas-Kaya  along the via Ferrata route. It was a memorable adventure, from which all its participants enjoyed and got a good dose of adrenaline. For many participants, it was the first experience of being on the rocks of such dizzying steepness. Thanks to the authors of the route and guides!

A 5-day extreme tour for Marina and Oleg Gusev has been completed! Our guests climbed several routes on the rocks under the guidance of the guides of the 7 Summits Club! They also managed to get acquainted with the sights of the Crimea, with its recent and distant history, with medieval caves and the history of the Gothic principality.
