This day is all about having a go at outdoor trad climbing and learning or refreshing fundamental trad safety skills. 

As well as lots of climbing and tips for moving on rock, we’ll cover a range of skills such as gear placements, rope work and abseiling, so that you can feel more confident and capable of getting going climbing outdoors. 

There will be a maximum group size of 8, and the day will take place at Hutton Roof (50 mins drive from Boulder UK)

Date: Sunday 10th August 25 

Who is this for?

Anyone who is new to outdoor route climbing and just wants a go.

Anyone who has trad climbed before but wants to consolidate or refresh key skills.

Participants will ideally be able to tie-in and belay already.

14- 17 year olds can attend, but only with a parent/guardian who is also attending the session. 

You will need to bring:

• Suitable outdoor clothing for the weather. (including waterproofs just in case!)
• Harnesses, helmets and rock shoes can be provided, but bring your own if you have them.
