Our guided rock climbing courses take place in Cumbria, UK, and last for two days.

Be guided high on some of the best lakeland mountain crags without the worry of route choice, weather or leading.

During the guided rock climbing course, we aim to teach you to belay a leader, remove leader placed protection, climb effieiently and abseil safely.

We'll climb on some of the classic Lake District crags including Gimmer, White ghyll, Bow fell or Raven in Langdale; Dow crag; Castle rock; Black crag, Shepherds crag and Raven crag in Borrowdale.

The course is designed to let you relax, enjoy the days, the wonderfull views and perhaps climb some thing harder than you thought was possible if you want to.

Course programme

Scroll down for photos

Both days of the guided rock climbing courses involve multi-pitch climbing.

We visit two different venues over the two days and aim to get onto a high mountain crag on one of the days.

Day 1 begins by climbing an easy diff or v.diff climb and see how you find it.

We can either carry on climbing at the same grade or advance onto something harder.

On Day 2 the difficulty is determined by you and what you want to achieve.

We are as happy to take you up long mountain routes with a great view as we are climbing harder routes that will push you to your limit.

One instructor takes no more than two clients out on either day.

Essential information

Climb 365 provides you with all the safety equipment you need, including harness, helmet and ropes.

You need to wear suitable clothing including rock boots, some of which can be borrowed from Climb 365.

You do not need to be super fit or athletic but you will be stretching and using your leg and arm muscles a lot, so you should have a moderate level of fitness. If in doubt please do ask us for advice.
