Learn to Rock Climb

North Wales is a compact area bristling with fantastic crags to learn how to climb trad or sport. The sea cliffs on the Great Orme and Gogarth are world-class,  mountain crags in the Ogwen and Llanberis valleys give a plethora of multi pitch climbs and other favourites such as Tremadog and the Slate Quarries provide an amazing range of rock types and poor weather options. This course aims to identify what stage you are at on the climbing learning curve and help you achieve progress.
