Rock Climbing Sessions
Climbing 2: Novice to Intermediate
This climbing course can be booked by individuals or groups, with a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 4 participants, so the client-instructor ratio is small. There is no need to register with Mountaineering Ireland so there is no fee other than the instructor fee per person. The course duration is a full day in length. If you have climbing equipment then bring it along otherwise all equipment will be supplied. The course covers the fundamentals of climbing outdoors in a safe and progressive manner.
Group members will have the opportunity to practise belaying skills, fundamental movement skills and how to lower a person using the rope in a safe manner. You will get the opportunity to practise anchor building and rope rigging.
A full day course will provide the opportunity to explore additional types of rope set ups and begin to develop the technical skills of each participant. This course would be ideal for an individual or a pair of climbers that want to climb together. The course will go ahead if there are 2 or more participants. If the weather prevents the course from going ahead we can reschedule or you can get a full refund.
