Starting Indoors Course

Indoor climbing walls have sprung up all over the place in recent years. They have made climbing more accessible to those with no previous experience or equipment, which has been great for the sport.

This course is a brilliant way to become acquainted with the essentials of indoor climbing, enabling you to proceed with greater awareness and increased safety. The course looks at the fitting of harnesses, appropriate knots and equipment, belaying techniques, basic climbing techniques and drawers your attention to the risks associated with indoor climbing walls.
