Advanced climbing course for lead climbing
This course is for children and adults who have already completed the top-rope course and have climbing experience. You will learn the correct belay technique on lead, how to clip the rope correctly while leading, climbing tactics and even more climbing technique.
Falling is part of lead climbing – so we also do a short fall training in which you are gradually introduced to falling correctly and catching falls.
The prerequisite is the top-rope course. We provide the equipment if you don't have your own yet. The entry fee for the climbing gym is not included in the price.

Course venue
The course takes place at the Kletterhalle Alpenverein Ried: Messeplatz 3a, 4910 Ried im Innkreis.
What comes next?
After the lead climbing course, the outdoors awaits: the rock climbing course takes you onto real rock, and the multi-pitch preparation course gets you ready for big walls. You'll find all courses in the climbing course overview.
Included
- State-certified climbing instructor
- Complete climbing equipment
Not included: Climbing gym entry fee
