Abseiling

Abseiling can be great fun! It is an exciting activity in itself. Abseils can be done from outcrops, mountains, bridges and buildings.

Abseiling is also an essential skill to enable a rock climber or mountaineer to descend from a big climb when there are no other reasonable means of safe descent.

Please note - Abseiling tuition is usually covered during our introduction to rock climbing courses.

We welcome requests from charities, individuals and companies for abseiling as a stand- alone fund raising activity. Click here for more abseiling info.
