Climbing Sessions for all abilities
We provide introductory lessons in climbing and abseiling using qualified instructors who are there to show you the ropes.
Climbing is a great activity which gives you great views and a workout at the same time. You don’t need to be particularly strong, your qualified instructors will show you correct movement for saving your strength. A large part of climbing is using your legs and balance to help you progress not pulling yourself up a rock. You can try this exciting sport with us in the breathtaking backdrop of sea cliffs or the mystical Preseli mountains.
Our climbing sessions are ideal for all ages and abilities, and due to the natural venues we use each session will contain both climbing and abseiling. You don’t need any previous climbing experience, but even if you have climbed before in a indoor wall this is a nice way to experience real rock.
Locations
Our most popular location is at St David's Head in Pembrokeshire, with stunning views and amazing walks you can't go wrong.
The second location is within the little town of Llandysul and is an inland climbing crag surrounded by the forest and next to the river Teifi.
What's involved in the session?
- Basic rope work skills like connecting yourself to the rope. But don't worry we can do this for you and we will always check your knots.
- Belaying a partner ( controlling the safety rope)
- Correct climbing style, balance and movement
- Abseiling (that’s coming down the rock)
- The venues we use are selected to provide you with an excellent introduction to this exciting sport. All equipment is included and all our climbing staff are climbers, so you’re in safe hands.
Suggested age 6+ but you will know your little ones better
