The Experience
Suitable for people with little or no previous experience, this is one of the very best beginners rockclimbing courses available anywhere, In two memorable days full of action and excitement you will learn about cliffline safety, basic movement on rock (including the correct way to use your feet, balance and weight transfer, edging, smearing and use of sideholds and layways), knots, ropehandling, belay techniques, rock features and climbing calls. Over the weekend you will complete several easy climbs (grades 7 to 19) as well as getting the opportunity to cut your teeth on the odd hard one if you’re up to it. We usually do a variety of climbs such as walls, cracks and corners ranging in height from 15 to 50 metres. All the climbs chosen for you to learn on are high quality classics that have stood the test of time. At the end of the course you will have mastered the basic skill and techniques for safe, enjoyable climbing. This will enable you to competently climb with experienced leaders up moderately graded climbs.
