Pik Nansena

The Peak of Nansena is one of Kyrgyzstan's most impressive summits. The highest point of the mountain is 5,697 meters above sea level. To the south of the Enelchek valley, the mountain is found in the Central Tien Shan.

In 1937, the peak was first scaled. A. Letaveta was in charge of the mission. A spectacular peak, framed in armor of ice and snow, flowing with diamonds in the sun's rays, presented a mesmerizing sight to the climbers.

The road to Pik Nansena's conquest is not easy, and it demands thorough physical preparation as well as adequate ammunition. Climbers from all over the world are drawn to the challenge, and no one can deny that climbing Nansena's Peak is difficult. The reward is a true revelation in the form of mountains carved out of icebergs that are unlike any other mountain on the planet.
