About the courses:

Each course is designed for people who have climbed indoors and want to experience the real thing. We will look at a range of techniques required to operate safely in the outdoors, and try to get as much done as possible. Locations will vary, depending on the weather and what suits the participants.

Evening sessions offer a taster; the full day session looks at climbing outdoors in more depth. The weekend session will give you the chance to try trad climbing, leading and getting to grips with a wider range of climbing variety.

Group sizes are limited, so contact us to book and for further details.
