Winter Climbing

Rope up and convert your rock-climbing skills to snow and ice.

We offer this course for:

Personal or Group Instruction & Guiding

Youth, School & Group Work

About the course

Our climbing courses take the next step up from Winter Mountaineering Courses and look closely at the specifics of winter climbing techniques such as using two ice axes and double ropes.

It is essential you have winter mountaineering experience and some basic rock climbing knowledge to attend these courses.

Courses can be two or five days long and the skills tuition will be on steep or graded ground.

During a two day course you will focus on the specific areas such as;

  • Rope work systems
  • Using two ice axes
  • Placing protection
  • Belaying on snow, ice and rock
  • Descent and escape methods
  • Route choice

Five day courses give you the time to develop and climb some classic routes, ridges and gullies.
