Course
Overview |
|
For
those looking at climbing big walls, the amount
of new equipment, and skills to master can seem
daunting. These guided days allow you to learn multi
pitch aid climbing in stunning scenery, and even
to experience a night on a portaledge. |
|
All
technical kit is included, aid climbing kit, ropes,
helmet, harness, portaledge. To consider this course,
you should be confident in lead climbing and ropework. |
|
These
days are available only as an extension after a
week long course. For example, if you booked on
a Bastille Rock course, the Guiding finishes on
the Friday, and you could be off to artificial climbing
on the Saturday morning. Not a bad way to finish
your holiday! |
|
Dates: Run on demand from
April through to November. For current availability
