We offer a range of outdoor and indoor climbing courses to suit all comers. :

Climbing Experience sessions. If you have a group that you want to be taken climbing (school group, youth group, family etc.) then this is for you.

Those wanting to learn or develop the skills needed for independent outdoor climbing will find the course for them from our range of ‘skills’ courses.

Guided experience. For individuals or pairs wanting the full adventure climbing experience. This can include climbing classic routes in the mountains or on sea cliffs.

In addition we offer bespoke courses so if you want something that you don’t see here, please ask. If you want advice about where you’re at with your climbing and how to take it forward then call or email us and we’ll be happy to discuss it.

Skills for Independent Climbing

This 2 day course is for people who want to learn to climb independently outdoors. It covers the skills needed to climb at single pitch crags using top ropes; skills which will open up a huge amount of quality climbing to you across the UK.  Top roping enables you to climb independently and is also a valuable building block for lead climbing. This course does not involve lead climbing.

Example Price: From £329 for a 2 day course based in Ilkley.

Maximum group size: 6 (from £55 per person)

Previous experience required: Some outdoor climbing and/or climbing independently indoors.

Syllabus includes:

• Guide book use, grades and route selection
• Anchor selection and assessment
• Selection and use of appropriate equipment
• Setting up safe top ropes
• Belaying in the outdoor context
• Movement skills for climbing on rock

As with all our skills courses, the syllabus will be tailored to the needs of the individual so will vary from course to course.

Skills for Lead Climbing 

Learn the skills required to start leading climbs outdoors. This 2-day course is also suitable for those who are already leading outside but would benefit from some professional instruction to fine tune their skills. 

Group size:  Up to 4 people.
Price: From £422
Experience required: Independent outdoor climbing and/or leading indoors.
Syllabus includes:

• Top rope systems including anchor selection and assessment
• Belaying for the lead climber and the second in the outdoor environment
• Equipment for lead climbing
• Anchor selection and assessment
• Managing risks on-lead, including runner placement and selection
• Guide book use, grades and route selection

Please note that we do not guarantee that you will lead a route on this course. While this will be the aim it will depend upon the assessment of the instructor as to whether or not it is safe to do so. This assessment will take into account events on the day including the weather.

In addition to this 2-day course we also offer 1 day and multi-day courses to provide a quicker introduction, a recap, or a more in-depth course on which the need for prior experience may not apply. Please contact us to discuss a bespoke course.

Skills for Multi Pitch Climbing.

Learn or develop the skills for multi pitch climbing. Making the move from single pitch climbing to multi pitch climbing offers new challenges and requires new skills. This course covers the skills you need to move into the multi pitch environment, including, for those that are ready for it, multi pitch leading. For those who already have multi-pitch climbing skills, this course can be tailored to develop those skills to a more advanced level. It is therefore suitable for 2 climbers at different stages in their skills and abilities. It can also be booked for a single climber.

Often booked as a 2-day course, this is also available as a single day for those wanting a quicker introduction or to fine tune their existing skills, and as a multi-day course for those who have the time to go into extra depth.

Price: from £195 per day

Movement Skills

Want to improve your grade, at bouldering, indoor wall climbing, or outdoor climbing? This is the course for you.
Group size: Up to 6
Price: From £102 per half day

Guided Experience

For anyone that wants to be taken multi pitch climbing, including on mountain crags and sea cliffs. This could be as an introduction to multi pitch climbing prior to going on a skills course, could be because there is a route you’ve always wanted to do, or could just be because you want the experience. Either way a day of guided climbing can make this happen. Like all our courses this is available as a gift.
Suitable for 1 or 2 people.

Price: From £195 per day.
