Rock Skills Introduction

The Rock Skills Introduction course at ClimbOut is your key to getting started! No previous experience of climbing is required to attend a Rock Skills Introduction because the content of the course is aimed at beginners. If you do have some experience of climbing but aren’t confident about using the equipment required, finding the crags, locating the routes you want to do and how to stay safe on the crag then the Rock Skills Introduction is an ideal way to learn.

Both days will cover fundamental movement skills and climbing technique. One day will concentrate on roped climbing and the other day will be spent bouldering. The syllabus of this course is designed by Mountain Training: Rock Skills Introduction.

Duration: 2 days

Ratio: 1:6

Minimum Age: 10

Pre-requisite experience: There is no prerequisite experience required for this course. We will start with the basics. 

Required equipment: If you have any other climbing equipment such as rock shoes, a helmet, harness and belay plate please bring them along with you.

If you do not have this equipment, it is available to borrow from ClimbOut. Please let us know in the appropriate section in the booking form.
