You've been, you've seen and now you're ready to conquer but wait just a minute because there's more to this climbing than just putting one foot ahead of the other.
This 3-hour introduction to climbing covers all of the safety techniques you'll need to use the top roping (where the ropes are already in place at the top of the wall) and bouldering areas of the centre. The cost of the course includes the hire of shoes and helmets.
You'll familiarise yourself with tying knots, belaying, climbing, and descending back down to solid ground. You'll also have an opportunity to give bouldering a try and put your new skills to the test without the use of ropes.
Courses run every week on Monday from 18.00 to 21.00, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday 18.30 - 21.30 and on Saturdays and Sundays from 13.00 - 16.00. It's advisable to book in for this course to avoid disappointment as spaces can fill up quickly.
After this course you should be able to start climbing at EICA without instruction.
