Mountaineering Costs

Home » Climbing » Mountaineering » Mountaineering Costs

Mountaineering is not a cheap sport. The cost of a basic tool kit, which includes ice axe, harness, and crampons, typically costs about $250. Mountaineering trips that are more difficult require extreme winter clothing that can cost thousands of dollars and double-plastic mountaineering boots which can cost anywhere between $200 to $400. Climbing rope, camping equipment, and oxygen (if required) are provided by the mountaineering outfitter in most cases.
