International Winter Ascent

Kerman, Iran

3-6 February 2015

On the occasion of 70th Anniversary of foundation of Iran Mountaineering and Sport Climbing

Federation (IMSCF), in order to promote mountaineering activities in the region as well as

encouraging closer ties between international mountaineers and Iranian mountaineers, IMSCF

has the great pleasure to invite mountaineers from around the world to participate in our

annual winter ascent.

This program enjoys a good level of safety repercussions, including medical and rescue

teams. Since the program is free of charge for the foreign climbers during their stay for the

climbing activity, unfortunately there is a limited quota for international climbers i.e. 30

climbers. We especially welcome UAAA and UIAA members as well as our neighboring

countries.
