Climbing
Climbing is an activity that can be enjoyed by all. You do not need to be athletic or have any prior climbing skills. We provide all the equipment and the technical expertise.
Our instructors will talk you through the procedure and are there to help you succeed, even for those with no head for heights. All we ask is that you give it a go.
Throughout the session you will learn how to climb and master the techniques of belaying (managing the safety rope for the climber) on beginner friendly crags.
There is always scope for more challenging climbs for those who already have some experience.
The venues used are usually around the North West Pennine Moors, Lancashire and comprise of natural Gritstone crags, quarries, the Limestone of the Yorkshire Dales, Anglesey, or the climbing towers on scout camps. We are able to travel to other areas if these are more accessible for you.
Our climbing sessions take place outdoors, so you will need to bring suitable clothing for the prevailing conditions on the day. Please note heels or sandals are not acceptable.
The climbing venue will be held away from shops, so it is also advisable to bring any food or drinks you may require.
Why not combine this with another activity and make a day of it. Depending on the venue it can be linked with any of the following:
Orienteering
Team building/Problem solving exercises
Abseiling
Archery
