This is is an excellent two day program for those of you who are just starting out climbing, or have been training on gym walls and are ready to start outdoor climbing. Adventure Out has been conducting climbing courses in Western Australia since 1984.

We are also the preferred trainers for the Climbing Association of Western Australia.

This introductory course is designed for those with little or no experience with rock climbing or rope-work. The focus of the two-day program is on developing your skills and confidence in setting up the safety systems associated with climbing, with considerable time spent on the rock developing personal climbing technique.

Testimonials

Carrie and I just wanted to thank you all so much, you have been all really nice to deal with and accommodating. We both thoroughly enjoyed the two introductory rock climbing course, (instructors) are fantastic guys and were great to learn from. - Glenn, WA

The team's friendly and confident manner enabled us to learn how to safely enjoy climbing. Everything was clearly explained and demonstrated. The team's encouragement and coaching was a great help to all of us and I personally enjoyed pushing further than I thought I could go at the beginning of the course. - Michael, WA
