What to Expect

We’ll meet at 9am or 1pm, depending on the session time, and walk to the crag together. Most of our sessions take place at Stanage Edge – one of the UK’s most famous climbing locations. We may sometimes choose a nearby venue depending on the weather or other local conditions, but it’ll always be close by.

Once at the crag, we’ll go through a full safety briefing and get you kitted up. You’ll be introduced to climbing equipment, rope systems, and belaying (holding the rope for your climbing partner), before moving on to climbing itself.

We’ll have a variety of climbs with options for different ability levels. It’s all about having a go, learning at your own pace, and enjoying the experience. There’s no pressure to reach the top – but you might surprise yourself!

It’s a sociable session that works just as well for individuals and families as it does for small groups.

Our half day climbing experience is ideally combined with caving, abseiling, or weaselling to create a full day of adventure for those wanting to pack even more outdoor excitement into their visit.
