Multipitch and Sea Cliff Climbing Courses

The next step up in complexity and commitment for the developing lead climber is to progress to multipitch and seacliff climbs. Ireland has some amazing mulipitch and seacliff climbing.

Whether you want to top out high above the spectacular Gap of Dunloe or hangout above the wild atlantic waves having the skills for these environments opens the doors to the amazing climbing on all our spectacular mountain and coastal cliffs.

Introduction to Multipitch Climbing

So, you have cut your teeth on lead-climbing and are looking to broaden your goals. Through a combination of guided climbing and one-to-one instruction this one day course will cover all the things you need to learn to move to the next level. Building intermediate belays, managing stances, swapping leads, abseil descents and so much more.

Course suitable for 1 to 3 people (2 is ideal).

Introduction to Sea Cliff Climbing

For many novice climbers – and some not so novice(!) – there is a mystery and even anxiety to abseiling down a cliff with the sea at the bottom. We want you to experience the magic of this style of climbing in comfort and safety….and hopefully you will be learning the skills to do so yourself. We will cover setting up anchors, ropes and descenders to abseil safely, building hanging belays,organising the climbing ropes and some self-rescue skills… just in case!

Course suitable for 1 to 4 people depending on the venue. (2 is ideal).

Multi-day Sea Cliff or Multipitch Courses

To truly grasp and use all the information and learning for Multipitch and Sea Cliff climbing, I highly recommend you do more than 1 days training. Combining two or more days together will give you the opportunity to see, practice, and most importantly, learn more. Why not combine both types of climbing into a single weekend and benefit from the considerable overlap in skill sets of the two types of climbing? I can offer a combined sea cliff and multipitch weekend in a number of locations around the country.

Courses suitable for 1 to 3 people depending on venue and previous experience.
