The Deanery of Students organized a tremendous hiking trip to Safin Mountain for all faculties and departments of Tishk International University in which approximately 700 students participated in. The trip took place on Saturday, November 06th, 2021, starting the journey at 8:30 AM.

Mountain Climbing has many benefits for climbers; it is s compound exercise that allows climbers to work multiple muscle groups and joints and the same time, improving mobility and promoting strength and fitness. For those who wish to lose weight, mountain climbing is an incredible fat burner, and is also a great way to build perfectly sculpted. Mountain climbing is an outstanding physical activity that enhances your balance and flexibility.

TIU Main Campus was our preparatory point; all students and staff members gathered at 8:30 AM to commence the journey. By 10 AM, we arrived at the destination, and all students prepared themselves for the vigorous activity. As we started to climb the mountain, the beautiful surrounding nature caught our attention, and students took a moment to photograph the spectacular views of mountain scenery.

Upon reaching the peak, the participants had a short rest and took a time to have their meals. They also spent time playing games and activities before descending the mountain. The trip finally came to an end, and we were back to University at 6 PM. The total distance of walking was approximately 12km-13km.

We, the Dean of Students, would like to thank all participating staff and students, and hope you all enjoyed this wonderful trip. Hopefully we will continue to organize outings that involve TIU as whole.
