Climbing Courses for Beginners

Each course is designed with the specific group’s aims and requirements in mind but a typical beginner’s session would involve:

  • Climbing – progression to ascending established routes
  • Equipment – ropes make climbing safe. Their use in conjunction with safety equipment is addressed in detail.
  • Technique – low level climbing exercises. Clients learn how to use hand holds and manage their centre of gravity using balance and friction.
  • Abseiling - after climbing and completing routes climbers will learn to descend the crag - QUICKLY!
  • Environment - the importance of the climbing venue's upkeep and maintenance by climbers and visitors is addressed.
