The number of entrants in the annual National Mountain Climbing Championship “Conquer Mount Fansipan” is expected to be twice that of last year, according to the event’s organizers.

So far 300 athletes from around the world aged 18-45 have registered to climb Fansipan, which is 3,143m high.

 

The climb, which is also known as the 2008 Vietnam Airlines cup, will take place on November 14.

 

Last year. Nguyen Van Sy and Pham Thi Hien and six climbers from England, Canada and Israel won the men’s and women’s individual and team titles.

 

Sy, from Thanh Hoa Province, made it to the summit in 1 hour and 53 minutes. Khanh Hoa’s Nguyen Dang Duc Bao reached the top in 2 hours, 1 minute.

 

In the women’s climb, Hien, from Hanoi, reached the summit in 2 hours, 15 minute to win the women’s title.

 

Fansipan, in Lao Cai Province’s Sa Pa District, is the highest peak in Indochina.
