If you've never tried either then here's the perfect opportunity. North Wales is fortunate to have some of the best climbing venues in the UK. The experience of freedom by ascending a seemingly impossible rock face using just your hands and feet is unique. That's not to mention the teamwork involved when a colleague is controlling the rope that is preventing you from falling to the ground, whilst the rest are providing words of encouragement and tips to reaching the top!
Abseiling for some is a quick and efficient means of descending a rock face after climbing it. For those new to the exciting world of climbing, abseiling is an adventurous and exciting activity giving you independence and a real sense of exposure. Once you've made that ‘step over the edge' you can lean out and enjoy the breath taking scenery as you make a controlled descent down a rope system to the ground, of course posing for an action shot on the way down!
Climbing and Abseiling go hand in hand and we strongly recommend you try both. As with the guided walks, our Mountaineering Instructors provide all of the safety equipment, instruction and supervision, just bring yourself, your camera and lots of enthusiasm!
