    Mountaineering

    It starts at night. From around 5,000 m (start of the glacier cap) you should put on crampons. However, the ascent to the summit is often possible without them, as long as conditions allow it. However, they are a must for the descent.

    The last 200 meters of ascent are only possible with crampons! Above: 360° panorama over Turkey, Iran, and Armenia – plus a fantastic view of Little Ararat. Very cold and windy depending on the season!
