Degrees of Difficulty on our Website for Mountain
Climbing and Trekking
Each degree we have mentioned on our web site
by means of walking small men ()
shows special meaning for the level of the difficulty of the tour. The
description for the numbers of these symbolic small men to show the difficulty
of the tour is as follow:
>>>
Showing the difficulty with two men mostly used for simple caves and trekking on
our web site. For trekking with this degree of difficulty we do not have any
steep climbing during the tour and in cave exploring you just visit the caves
and do not need any technical ability for exploring inside the cave.
>>>
Three walking men is used for climbing to summits with the heights of 3000-4000m
and not more. During these mountain climbing tours, we just climb on different
steep routes without having any ice or rock climbing. In cave exploring
programmers with this degree of difficulty, we just pass the narrow places
inside the cave and no technical ability for rock climbing is needed.
>>>
Climbing the summits of 4000-5000m height is shown with this degree of
difficulty on our web site. Beside some steep climbing during the route in these
kinds of tours, we may have to pass some glaciers and rarely have some simple
rock climbing. For the caves with this level of difficulty, the participants
should have sufficient knowledge and experience about cave exploring and it
techniques since going through such caves is only possible by ropes and other
suitable devices.
>>>
This is used for climbing the summits with more than 5000m heights and it needs
to have a high physical ability and sufficient experience in mountain climbing
and required techniques in its related fields. One may encounter any sudden
incident in mountain such as falling ice, snow or stone. So being professionally
experienced in mountain climbing is of utmost importance for participating in
these kinds of tours. |
