Advanced Climbing Course

Our 3 days advanced climbing course is for climbers who want to get into lead climbing or who want to practice more and bring it further. The aim of this course is to plant the seeds to become a self sufficient climber who can go outdoors on their own and stay safe.

WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR?

You already have good practice in climbing and belaying on top rope and now you feel ready for taking the next step to become a self-sufficient outdoor climber but don’t know where to start.

A certain climbing grade is not necessary but feeling comfortable and in control during top roping is important to get more out of this course.

Details

The first day takes place at the Flakturm Climbing Gym where we focus a lot on good belaying and falling tactics. The following two days are at one of the outdoor locations around Vienna, which are suitable for beginners and that are easily accessible by car or public transport. If you don`t have a vehicle, contact us – we often have seats free for you in our car. Don’t forget to bring water, snacks and sun screen.
