Learning how to look after you and your partner on longer climbs can a be very rewarding experience. With our multi-pitch intro, we will give you the skills, techniques and knowledge of how to keep climbing safely & efficiently. To achieve this, we will focus on solid anchor setups, stance and rope management which will maintain the flow and overall enjoyment while climbing those sought after routes! Having some previous outdoor climbing experience is desirable but not essential.
