A great day on the rock, with time for lots of climbing and bouldering, and with a little abseiling thrown in too!
Course Description We will start off by introducing you to the techniques that are needed to climb efficiently. Taught while bouldering (low level traversing), which will include, body position, balance, weight transference, reach, hand and feet placements, smearing, mantle-shelving etc. Then onto climbing with ropes, utilizing your new knowledge we will get you up plenty of climbs, looking at using technique rather than pure strength to get to the top. You will also learn how to belay (control the rope) as that is an important part of going climbing. We will use different locations throughout the day, so that you get a feel for different types of climbing. As we change the routes being done, you will be introduced to the rigging and the knots and equipment used. The emphasis on this day is to get you climbing, climbing, climbing, but with enough knowledge that you could enter into the sport and have a basic understanding. This is a favourite part of our multi-activity week and a popular group day at the weekend. An instructors favourite day out too.

Listening to comments made by the other members of my group, they also enjoyed it as much as I did. Despite a lousy weather forecast, you even managed to provide a lovely, sunny day! R.H. The experience was excellent. Great being in a small group with 'jobs' to do on each climb. Excellent instructor. C.P. J.B. It was great, can't fault it. I loved it.
