Led by a female instructor, this trip gives you the skills you need to become an independent outdoor sport leader, with a maximum 1:4 ratio. The course begins with a 4 hour indoor session on the Friday evening to learn the necessary techniques, then on Sunday you have a full day on the rock to consolidate and put your new skills into practice. Your instructor will take you to the area with the best weather on the day, ensuring maximum time on the rock with the best conditions. We provide any kit that you may need, and tailor the choice of routes to your ability.

Experience needed: you must be a competent indoor leader, comfortable top-roping 6a. If you’ve never led before, no problem - contact us to discuss a bespoke booking.

Please note that the course cost does not cover entry to the wall.

U-18 PARTICIPANTS MUST BE ACCOMPANIED BY A PAYING ADULT PARENT OR GUARDIAN.

These trips need a minimum of 2 participants to run. If not enough people book, then we will refund you.
