About Us

Welcome to Peak and Rock, where passion meets adventure! We are Paymaneh and Parvin, two strong and adventurous women who share a deep love for mountains, Rock climbing, and the exhilaration of pushing our limits. Our journey from personal triumphs to building our own businesses led us to a new chapter when circumstances brought us to the beautiful city of Halifax in Nova Scotia.

Paymaneh's Journey:

From a young age, I had an immense love for sports, indulging in various disciplines such as ping-pong, handball, badminton, judo, kung fu, swimming and so on. Each sport brought me joy and showcased my abilities. However, Iran’s societal circumstances and the closure of universities forced me to set aside my dreams of pursuing professional sports and enter the job market.

For years, I worked in a patriarchal society, where I dedicated my efforts to prove my capabilities both in the workplace and in sports. But on the eve of my forties, everything changed when a friend introduced me to the mountains again. Though I had previously gone to the mountains a few times with my father, I had never felt a deep connection to them. However, that first day on the mountain, something shifted within me. I experienced a newfound sense of freedom, as if a breath of fresh air revitalized my spirit.

From that moment on, mountain climbing became an integral part of my life. I immersed myself in the mountains, striving to improve my skills and conquer new heights. I challenged myself to climb almost all the peaks above four thousand meters in the central Alborz range and even ventured further to scale several high peaks above six thousand meters in the Himalayas.

Amidst turbulent political and social conditions, climbing and rock climbing became my sanctuary, providing an escape from the problems that plagued my business and personal life. Through climbing, I discovered my own capabilities and learned to face difficulties head-on. It instilled in me the confidence that with a little effort and concentration, I could overcome any obstacle. I owe my newfound resilience to the mountains.

Parvin's Journey:

As a woman with a deep connection to nature, the mountains have always held a special place in my heart. At a young age, my father would gather my two sisters and me and take us to a mountain near Tehran. It was on those mountains that we discussed important issues and forged unforgettable memories. These experiences ignited my love for the mountains and the rugged beauty of nature.

I pursued my passion for Rock climbing, eventually competing, coaching, and even becoming a referee for the International Climbing Federation despite the patriarchal environment. I thrived on the hard work required in both sports and business. I found great fulfillment in running my own Mountaineering shop and developing a profound appreciation for, and expertise in, climbing equipment. However, when economic conditions in Iran deteriorated, I faced the difficult decision of leaving my successful business behind and starting anew in Canada.

Upon arriving in Canada, I was filled with determination to rebuild and continue pursuing my dreams. Mentally and financially vulnerable due to the immigration process, my dear friend Paymaneh became my anchor. We embarked on weekly trail excursions, where we shared our mountain climbing memories and connected on a deeper level. Paymaneh and I had a longstanding friendship and climbing partnership, having scaled mountains together in Iran.

After exchanging stories of our lives, we realized that combining our passions and interests in a business venture was the perfect path forward. With Paymaneh's extensive climbing experience and my background in running mountaineering gears store, we decided to establish a company that embodied our shared love for nature and provided top-quality climbing and mountaineering gear. Thus, Peak and Rock was born.
