1+ day intermediate rock climbing course in the Chamonix Valley

Upgrade your climbing capability with us in the stunning setting of the Alps. This intermediate rock climbing course quickly advances your climbing skills and moulds the average climber into a confident, technical climber.

Climbers who are familiar with basic belaying, anchor construction, rappelling methods, all basic equipment, and have some experience with multi-pitch climbs, are the perfect potential participants for this course.

The intermediate course reinforces the techniques of anchoring, belaying, and safety techniques. All of which will be incorporated in multi-pitch climbs.

The course also covers a variety of topics, which include the more advanced anchor systems, gear placements, route finding, belay escape, rope management systems. In addition, you’ll get to know logistical planning for longer routes, strategies for multi-pitch rappel set-ups, and evaluating in-situ anchors and rap stations.

Upon completion of the intermediate course, climbers will have built confidence in their all-round ability to navigate the mountains, as well as being a reliable second for the average recreational leader.

The nature of multi-pitch climbing is a much more complicated and technical activity than typical gym climbing methods, and participants learn how to implement a number of techniques.

This intermediate course is the natural progression from our Rock Fundamentals course, but is also ideal for those who have the equivalent set of skills. To be able to participate in the course, you are expected to have a good level of fitness.

Depending on your specific level of experience, skill and interest, the location in the Alps may be different.
