Learning rock climbing has never been easier with this one day rock climbing course in Perth. This one-day program is designed for those with little or no rock climbing experience and wish to either start or extend their outdoor rock climbing abilities. Compared to indoor climbing, outdoor rock climbing requires you to choose your own route, thereby increasing the difficulty and complexity of the activity. As such, outdoor rock climbing gives you a greater sense of personal challenge and achievement.
The day begins with a training session on safety equipment, communication and climbing protocol, tying onto a rope, and belaying the climber. You will also be instructed on various moves and techniques to improve your climbing style and to aid you in climbing difficult walls. Climbs are set up throughout the crag to allow you to experience various pitches and difficulties throughout the day. Instructors are on hand to assist and advise while you climb.
Summer 1st Nov 31st Mar, 7am 3pm; Winter 1st Apr 31st Oct, 8am 3pm.
Venue Location:
The one day rock climbing course is held at Gooseberry Hill (Stathams Quarry) approximately 30 minutes from Perth CBD.
