Learn to lead climb

Unlock the thrill of lead climbing and embark on your own exhilarating adventures! Our two-day course is designed to transform indoor lead climbers or trad/sport climbers who second their partners into confident outdoor leaders.

Set against the stunning backdrop of The Peak District, you’ll spend day one sport climbing and day two tackling Trad climbing. Every aspect of lead climbing is covered, including safety at the crag, movement coaching, clipping, belaying, placing protection, anchors, and more.

It’s the perfect way to advance your climbing knowledge and experience the rush of leading with backup safety ropes, ultimately getting you ready to take on lead climbs independently.

Led by Mountaineering & Climbing Instructor (MCI) Simon Stokes, this course is ideal for those who already second outdoors or lead climb indoors. Don’t miss out on this opportunity—Contact Us to book your place today!
