With guidance from our staff you will be able to progress very quickly, the course has a low 1:2 ratio in order to maintain our high level of quality instruction, ideally you should have past rock climbing experience and a good idea of what lead climbing is all about.

This course is a two day workshop, in the two days we will aim to cover;

  • Personal equipment and organising it on your harness
  • Gear Placement
  • Belaying a lead climber and a second
  • The process of leading
  • Judgement, route choice and route finding

Our instructors have a very high level of experience and will guide you through every aspect and answer any question you have.

All lead climbing workshops are based in the peak district home to some of the best single pitch climbing in the country.
