Overview

This immersive course is all about going climbing and gaining valuable mileage on rock. A ratio of one instructor to two participants allows us to go to multi-pitch crags and take on more demanding venues, such as sea cliffs. Rest assured, you’ll receive personalised coaching and instruction to take your climbing wherever you want it to go. You should leave the course feeling more confident and capable as a climber and eager to put it into action!
