Rock
Climbing Courses in Wales |
|
|
|
All
the climbing courses are run in Snowdonia, North Wales by top
qualified instructors at low ratios. This enables our approach
to be flexible and personal. Below are listed three of the most
popular outdoor rock courses for people who are new to climbing,
those who have either only climbed indoors or seconded at single
pitch venues and for those that wish to start or improve in the
subtleties of lead climbing. New to this year are the rescue courses.
 However,
this list is not exhaustive and specific rock climbing courses
can be offered in areas such as rescues, bouldering, Welsh sea
cliff climbing, big wall climbing or guided climbing days, at
venues of your choice around North Wales.
Courses
will be aimed at your individual level. We aim to provide fun
and memorable days out, where you can learn new rope skills
and climbing techniques on memorable climbs.
For
more about rock climbing in North Wales and Snowdonia please
