FaQ
Do I need previous rock climbing experience?
Yes. This course is designed for participants with a decent amount of experience rock climbing likely including experience with outdoor sport climbing or top-roping.
Is there a minimum age requirement to climb?
Participants must be at least 14 years old.
Can I bring my own equipment?
