It’s everything you need to climb with more confidence and control! You’ll work step-by-step to conquer your fear of falling and feel more confident while lead climbing.

WHO IS THIS FOR

This workshop is suitable for outdoor sport lead climbers that want to learn how to fall without fear. 


OUR INSTRUCTORS

Our awesome instructors are highly trained and accredited by PACI (Professional Association of Climbing Instructors). Put simply, they are subject matter experts. They’ll provide all the theory material you’ll need to get a firm understanding of the concepts you’ll learn, as well as ample opportunities for practical application. Don’t leave it to guesswork, get trained by the best.


WHAT TO BRING

Whilst all necessary gear is provided, we encourage you to bring your own if you have it – your instructor will check it out and let you know if it’s suitable to use. This is a great opportunity to become familiar with the equipment you will be using in your future climbing career!

We recommend every student owns the following gear as a minimum:

  • Harness

  • Climbing shoes


As well as the technical equipment, you’ll need a few other things to make the course run smoothly, so make sure you also bring the following:

  • Non-restrictive clothing. Check the weather forecast to get an idea of the conditions.

  • Enclosed footwear such as hiking boots or runners, sturdy enough to handle a rough trail

  • A backpack big enough to carry all the necessary gear

  • 2-3 litres of water, hat, insect repellent, sunscreen, sunglasses

  • Your own food and snacks, full of energy to keep you happy and psyched!

  • A pen and paper

SESSION TIMES AND LOCATIONS

The course runs for 4 hours from 7:30am to 11:30am. This session takes place at Mt Tibrogargan in the Glasshouse Mountains National Park.

You’ll need a moderate amount of fitness for the 30 minute hike to the base of the mountain carrying all the gear you need including ropes, carabiners and personal safety equipment.
