You will have 9 lessons, each approximately 3 hours in length. Whilst each lesson will teach you a lot of theory, most lessons will be conducted in a practical environment – doing is the best way to learn. However, don’t panic, as the size and difficulty of your climbs will change as you gain more knowledge and experience.
You will work one to one with your guide/instructor, though in rare cases group sizes can be up to 3 people.
Please Note: Your lesson schedule will remain very flexible during the programme to accommodate the weather, the location of your climb, your experience and a number of other key factors. Most lessons in summer will start at 7am or 3pm. In winter, lessons will start at 8am or 2pm.
