Rock Climbing

Choosing where to rock climb can be difficult. We are your ultimate rock climbing travel guide and your gateway to your next adventure.

If you have seen pictures of people perched on a small ledge thousands of feet up with not a rope in sight and thought that perhaps rock climbing isn’t for you then think again.

The goal to rock climbing is to reach the top or an endpoint of vertical naturally formed rocks. Usually safety equipment including ropes is used, but can also be freeform with limited tools used.

You can learn the basics or improve your skills a few feet off of the ground. We offer rock climbing courses and holidays with trained instructors to suit all levels of climbers.
