Introduction to Climbing

Going Outdoors

Climbing indoors is a great and social sport and way to de-stress. However, climbing outside is what the majority of climbers enjoy most. It is also an extremely social day out as you inevitably end up chatting about routes with others on the crag. 

​

For those who have mastered belaying, tying in, have been climbing indoors for a while and want to take the next step and climb outdoors on rock, this day is a great taster for you.

We can run outdoor sessions at most single-pitch crags in Yorkshire, Derbyshire, Snowdonia and in the Lakes. This is also good for groups and corporate events.

We run these by request or advertise them at relatively short notice on AFS Mountaineering's Facebook Page or Nick's Outdoors Facebook Page as the weather can be so variable - if you would like to try outdoor rock climbing get in touch! 

​

These courses need a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 6.

We can cover: 

• Equipment

• Outdoor climbing on a range of different routes

• Topping out

• Abseilling

This is an adult session and under 18s (over 16s) can come so long as the parent / guardian is present (even if not participating).

​

Outdoor courses cost £95 per person for the day if booking for 1 person, £86 per person if booking for 2-3 and £82 per person if booking for 4-6 people

Please note - For outdoor climbing days at Brimham Rocks - This is National Trust and there is a parking charge (free for National Trust members). This is not included in the fee!
