The 2 day
climbing course allows you to experience and enjoy a wide range
of different climbing routes across Snowdonia. Throughout the
weekend, we build up your confidence and skill level in movement
on the rock and handling of the climbing equipment. Working
at low ratios, of 1:4, enables us to focus on individual needs
and desires.
On the last
day there is one instructor to every two clients. This allows
the possibility of ascending multi-pitch routes (cliffs longer
than a rope length that are climbed in a series of stages) or
experiencing being on lead.

following:
- Introduction days on small friendly crags

hand jams...)

routes. A more experienced climber would be provided with advanced
lead climbing and opportunities to climb longer mountain or
sea cliff routes.
