Central Pamir | Moskvina Base Camp | Fixed Dates 2026
Two legendary seven-thousanders. One expedition. Professional guides. Proven logistics.
High in the heart of the Central Pamir Mountains, above vast glaciers and one of the world’s highest plateaus, rise two iconic summits of world alpinism:
- Communism Peak (Ismoil Somoni) — 7,495 m
- Ozodi Peak (Evgenii Korzhenevskaya) — 7,105 m
Our guided group expeditions offer a rare opportunity to climb both peaks in a single season, following classic routes with full acclimatization, experienced high-altitude mountain guides, and complete expedition logistics based at Moskvina Base Camp.
These programs are designed for climbers who value structure, safety, and professional support—while preserving the spirit of true expedition-style mountaineering.
The Central Pamir & Moskvina Region
The Central Pamir is one of the most important high-altitude mountaineering regions in the world. Two of the three Pamir peaks exceeding 7,000 meters are located here, along with the Fedchenko Glacier (71.2 km)—the longest glacier in Central Asia.
The landscape is defined by massive east–west–oriented mountain ranges connected by the Akademia Nauk (Academy of Sciences) Range, creating a vast and remote alpine environment.
Moskvina Base Camp — 4,100–4,360 m
Situated near an alpine lake at the confluence of the Waltern(a) and Moskvina glaciers, Moskvina Base Camp is the primary operational hub for expeditions to both Somoni and Ozodi peaks. Its location allows efficient acclimatization, flexible scheduling, and shared logistics between the two objectives.
Best Climbing Season
The Pamir climate is severe and highly variable, and the climbing season is short.
Optimal period: mid-July – August 20
During this window, weather stability, glacier conditions, and route preparation are at their best.
Peak Overview
Communism Peak (Ismoil Somoni) — 7,495 m
The highest peak of the Pamirs is a vast rock-and-ice pyramid with four major faces. Classic routes cross the famous Pamirskoe Plateau—one of the largest and highest plateaus on Earth (4,700–6,300 m).
Normal Route: Barodkin Ridge (North), Grade 5A
- Technically moderate but extremely demanding
- Long, exposed, and committing due to altitude and remoteness
- Comparable in technical difficulty to Lenin Peak, but significantly more serious
This ascent represents a true test of high-altitude endurance and expedition discipline.
Ozodi Peak (Evgenii Korzhenevskaya) — 7,105 m
Located approximately 13 km from Communism Peak, Ozodi is often considered the most logical acclimatization summit in the Central Pamir.
Classic Route: South Ridge, Grade 5A
- Opened in 1966
- Straightforward line after proper acclimatization
- Ideal as the first summit in a combined program
Despite its reputation as a “more accessible” seven-thousander, Ozodi remains a serious alpine objective requiring glacier travel, ropework, and solid high-altitude fitness.
Why Choose a Guided Group Expedition
A fixed-date guided group format provides decisive advantages in the Central Pamir:
- Certified, experienced high-altitude mountain guides
- Structured acclimatization strategy
- Established high camps and route preparation
- Shared group equipment and safety systems
- Fixed helicopter flights and full Base Camp support
This format is ideal for climbers aiming to gain experience above 7,000 meters, prepare for future 8,000 m objectives, and complete two major Pamir ascents within one expedition window.
