Description

Situated in the heart of the Pennines, in central England, the Peak District is one of the top rock climbing destinations in the United Kingdom!

The world's second most visited national park boasts superb gritstone crags, including Burbage, Forgatt and the world famous Stanage Edge, all of which make for some high-quality climbing.

Our 2-day climbing course will begin after we meet up in Hathersage. The idyllic town is perfectly situated within the national park, offering great access to some of the top climbing spots.

We'll start by going over the group's experience, so that we can pick the perfect routes to suit everyone's ability levels.

The rest of the day and the following day will be spent out on the rocks, learning new rock climbing skills and honing existing ones too.

From the top of whichever crag we manage to make it up, we'll be rewarded with stunning views of the area.

Among the skills and techniques that we will be able to work on include:

  • Belaying (depending on experience)

  • Equipment: harness, helmet, ropes, belay devices & rock shoes

  • Climbing movement & techniques

  • Tying into the rope

  • Climbing safety

  • Abseiling

  • Climbing etiquette

  • Route selection

  • Climbing guide books

  • Climbing history and the BMC

By the time we're finished, you will havre an improved understanding of rock climbing and be ready to take on tougher routes in the future.

(Please note that some previous rock climbing experience is required for you to make the most out of this trip.)

Man

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Maxine

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
