The mountains attract many, especially those who were born in flat areas and saw snow-capped peaks only in pictures in a geography textbook. Almost every child dreams of climbing a mountain, and as an adult, he looks for ways to turn what he wants into reality.
Instructions
Step 1
Decide which mountain you want to climb and what do you mean by the word "mountain": for someone it is a more or less high hill somewhere in the central part of Russia, for someone (who does not like to waste time on trifles) itself Chomolungma, and for someone, some medium-sized, completely harmless-sized rock overgrown with forest will suit. But remember that even the most harmless rock can turn out to be much more "difficult" than you expect, and it will take a lot of dexterity, dexterity, good physical preparation and special equipment to get there.
Step 2
Depending on the size, the size of the mountain you intend to climb, decide which travel format is more suitable for such an ascent: it will be a one-day bike ride along a mountain serpentine, a trip by car or a full-fledged expedition. In any case, going alone is stupid. Take your friends with you, better than those who already have some experience of "communication" with the mountains, and it is better to enlist the support of an experienced climber.
Step 3
Think about how you can get in the mountain from the most successful side. Maps, the Internet, locals, travelers who have already climbed this mountain will come to your aid. Do not miss the road signs either. You can contact the traffic police (the name of this body will vary from country to country), the people working there probably know by heart all the roads and paths in the area where they serve. But it is better to think over everything in advance, draw a route on the map and consult with knowledgeable people.
Step 4
Remember that many of the most beautiful peaks are located in protected areas, so getting there is likely to be more difficult than it seems. On the other hand, the staff of the national park or nature reserve, on occasion, will be able to provide you with the necessary assistance, call an ambulance, show the way, and tell a lot of interesting things about the local flora and fauna. Do not neglect their help, especially if you are as far away from professional mountaineering as the moon.
Step 5
The easiest way to get to the mountain is to take a cable car. In many countries there are peaks where you will be taken in ten minutes. The exoticism and charm of independent travel is, of course, lost, but the enterprise may turn out to be less expensive and much more comfortable and safe. Always consider this opportunity and do not neglect it. It is sometimes helpful to put pride and adventurism aside.
