Intermediate Course

One Day course

This course offers a great opportunity for established climbers to really learn the ropes from a certified guide and experienced climber. If you feel like your climbing has been stuck at one level for too long; this is the course for you. If you feel like the people who taught you how to climb weren't really sure about it themselves; this course is for you. If you really want to get the most out of your trip here, spend more time sending, and less time wandering around looking routes; then this course is for you.
