Rupert & Dave have recently been up the Remarkables with slightly older clients (+50). Both trips were to climb the fantastic accessible alpine rock up there. If  it’s been a while since you have been on the rock or wanting to step it up a notch in an alpine situation, the Remarkables is the perfect location for a day trip. The routes are generally of the long easy nature and get lots of sun at this time of year! Book your private trip on the alpine rock today (:

Plenty of action on our local peaks of the Remarkables.
Their geographic location means plenty of  dry weather and more climbing days in a multitude of great alpine situations.

Winter rock climbing
