Rock Climbing Course – Outdoor Climbing for Beginners and Advanced

From the gym to the rock

In this course you learn what matters when climbing on real rock: hazards at the crag, correct behaviour, belay position, belay stations, rope commands and more. Special rope techniques and knots – such as re-threading at the anchor – are also essential skills on rock.

As a prerequisite you need the lead climbing course and solid climbing experience in the gym. If you need any equipment, you're welcome to rent it from us.
