Beginners

 Description of the Activity

Rock climbing is a sport related to mountaineering which involves scaling vertical walls using your own strength, agility and balance to find toeholds for hands and feet. Special rubber climbing shoes are often used which increase the adherence of the feet to the toeholds.

Climbers use a rope to secure themselves on vertical terrain. The rope protects the climber in case of fall and allows them to rest if necessary.
The introductory course involves grade 4 and 5 short climbs up to 20 meters in height, where it is easy to find comfortable toeholds for both hands and feet.

Advanced

 Activity Description

Level 2 Climbing includes more demanding routes (grade 5+ to 6b). The length and technical difficulty of the routes make finding toeholds and adopting the correct body position more important. In general terms toeholds for both hands and feet are smaller, less comfortable and may be more difficult to locate. Occasionally there may be isolated overhanging moves. One of the objectives in Level 2 Climbing is to teach the group safety techniques so that the participants can acquire autonomy as climbers.

 Rock Climbing Advanced. Mínimum requirements

•  Having Experienced sport climbing on several occasions.
• Being able to climb confidently at a least grade 4.
• Basic notions of balance and body position on vertical terrain.
• Basic notions of belaying.
• At this level, explosive strength and resistance come into play.
