Multiple routes of varying difficulty lead to its catwalk summit. Expect a true alpine climbing adventure to reach a summit that can only be reached by those with the tenacity to climb to it.

FAQ:

​

Do I need previous rock climbing experience?

For Alpine climbing adventures at least some prior experience is required. We have some really easy and accessible routes but if you are not used to spending time in a harness and hanging from a rope, even these may feel like too much a challenge. We don't want to underestimate the "exposure fatigue" that can develop from being in a challenging new environment!

 

Is there a minimum age requirement to climb?

You must be at least 14 years old to Alpine climb.

 

Can I bring my own equipment?

Sure! We will just need to inspect it to make sure it is in good condition.

​​

What happens if the weather forecast is poor?

We can climb through a lot but if we determine the forecast is a safety issue we will reschedule your climb or find a suitable alternative objective for your day. We cannot offer refunds for poor weather cancellations.
