Taster Session (3 hours)
Experience Rock Climbing at Harrison’s Rocks (Near Tunbridge Wells) in a relaxed but safe environment. We will warm up with some scrambling. This involves crawling through caves and learning to move on small rocks without ropes. We will then advance on to some roped rock climbs. As far as route choice, equipment and knots are concerned, your instructor will do most of the thinking for you so that you can relax and enjoy your climbing. You will enjoy this session and if you would like to learn more about equipment and rope work as well as advancing your climbing skills, then please join us in anIntroductory One or Two Day Course, or most comprehensively, a Six Week Course.
