Rock climbing COURSE

We offer three-day climbing courses tailor made to suit any individual or group. Ranging from a basic introduction to modern climbing techniques, to more advanced and technical rock climbing. Courses will be designed for any person wanting to advance or brush up their skills, or gain more competence and experience on the rock.

 

On our standard three-day course, you are guaranteed at least one day of private guiding, with two days as part of the group sessions (your guide will ensure you get personal attention and accommodate your needs on these days). All days will be tailored to your needs.

 

Please note that for alpine multi-pitch leading and dedicated trad courses, a fully privately guided trip may be your best option. Please see 'other options' below.

 

Course outcomes:

  • Beginners learn to sports 'lead' climb
  • Sports climbers convert to Traditional Style climbing
  • Single pitch climbers learning to lead multi-pitch routes
  • Rock climbers learn to lead alpine rock routes
  • Develop sound problem solving and rescue techniques
