What To Expect

Get vertical in the Cairngorms on this rock climbing experience! This single day experience is tailored to you and is guaranteed to be challenging, fun and exciting!

Your experience starts by meeting and getting to know your qualified climbing instructor. We run our rock climbing experiences in various locations across the Northern Cairngorms, with scenic venues suitable for families and novices and exciting mountain venues suitable for confident beginners right through to experienced climbers. We'll help you decide on the best venue for your group and provide all the equipment you'll need to stay safe.

Some venues have a short scenic walk through ancient woods to approach, other venues involve heading high into the mountains, either way; it's an opportunity to discover another part of this beautiful area.

Your climbing instructor will teach you basics of rope-work, help improve your climbing technique and of course; keep you safe throughout! There'll be lots of opportunities for photos and everyone in your group will get to try several climbs and abseils. If you are an experienced climber, we can guide you on some of the harder or more famous routes in the area. Your choice!
