Khan Tengri, a majestic peak in the Tian Shan mountain range, is a prime destination for experienced mountaineers. Climbing season is typically limited to July and August due to harsh weather conditions. A guided expedition is highly recommended, if not essential, due to the technical challenges and high altitude. Solo ascents are strongly discouraged. The cost for a guided climb can range from $3,000 to $7,000+ depending on the outfitter and services included. The entire expedition typically takes 2-3 weeks, including acclimatization. Accessibility is limited, requiring a helicopter flight to base camp. Due to its remote location and challenging terrain, this is not suitable for casual tourists or those with limited mountaineering experience. There are no significant accessibility accommodations for individuals with disabilities beyond base camp.
