"The two day ROCK 1 package was an excellent introduction to outdoor rock climbing. The guides were friendly, professional and were flexible to change the package due to weather and customer skill level"
Luke H - TripAdvisor Review

This course is designed for participants with little or no previous outdoor climbing experience, it is also an excellent transition from indoor to outdoor climbing. Quite simply you will experience a lot of fine Blue Mountains climbing while undertaking world standard technical rock and rope skills training.

We can also run this course on a personal instruction / private group basis for those who prefer to select their own dates.

The course fee includes: - All skills training and guided climbing with Nationally and Internationally Certified Climbing Instructors, lunch each day, supply and use of all equipment including ropes, helmets, harnesses, technical hardware, climbing shoes etc.

The second day of the course is devoted solely to the simple joys of climbing, with your instructor aiming to take you on as many varied climbs as possible. The object will be to learn and develop your skills and techniques as you climb!
