From Gym to Rock Climbing

You already lead climb indoors and are finally ready to head outside — but feel unsure on real rock? Or maybe you just want to avoid the most common mistakes and start enjoying your outdoor days to the fullest, sooner?

What can I expect?

We take groups of 3–8 participants for a full day (8h) at real rock and teach you everything you need to make the jump from gym to outdoor climbing. We cover climbing and belaying technique, threading the rope at the anchor, what to do when you can't finish a route, tactical tips & tricks, proper conduct at the crag, and much more — setting you up for confident, independent outdoor adventures.

Course goal: Master the transition from gym to outdoor climbing, climb outside independently, and be prepared for any situation.

You've been lead climbing indoors for some time and feel comfortable with lead belaying. Your climbing grade doesn't matter. Rental gear is available on-site if needed; climbing shoes are available in limited sizes on request.
