Hike to Furmanov Peak

Furmanov Peak is at an altitude of 3053 meters. At a sporty pace, we can reach the peak in 3 hours, while a typical hike takes about 4-5 hours, considering rest breaks and small photo sessions.

TIME: The journey from Medeu to Furmanovka peak takes about 4-5.5 hours, depending on the physical fitness of the participants.
TERRAIN: The trail initially goes along an asphalt road from the Medeu sports complex (approximately 20 minutes), then along a dirt road (about 30 minutes), and then a well-trodden trail leads upwards along the ridge.
PARTICIPANTS: The route is accessible for people with average physical fitness, but it can take quite a long time. We will set a control time for the ascent to Furmanovka so that all participants can return to the city before dark.
