Rock Climbing in the Peak District
Many of our rock skills courses are held in The Peak District because it is one of the best venues for learning to climb in the UK. The single pitch gritstone edges provide 100’s of top quality routes and the easy access enable us to cover lots of ground.
Our instructors and guides are chosen for their depth of local and international experience and their aim is to maximise the amount of time that is spent on the rock enjoying the climbs.
Take the first step towards climbing outdoors. We will spend an enjoyable day climbing routes and learning some basic skills.
Spend a weekend on the rock being introduced to all of the skills required to climb single pitch rock routes. Grading, choosing routes, hardware, ropework and seconding are just a few of the topics covered.
Having top roped and seconded routes, move on up to leading your own. We will cover all of the skills required to lead a single pitch route and support you during your first few leads.
Having gained a good level of top rope experience, spend a weekend climbing some of the best traditional routes that our region has to offer. Typically, we will visit two gritstone edges that are known for their superb views and quality climbs.
Having gained a good level of top rope experience and climbing around F6a, you will spend this weekend climbing bolted sport routes. We will get a lot of climbing done and cover the skills required for sport climbing.
Come along for a day of guided rock climbing, you can pre-arrange your own tick list of routes or we will help you to choose classics at a grade to match your ability. With a maximum of 2 climbers to 1 guide you will progress quickly and experience some of the best climbs the Peak has to offer.
