The first step towards becoming a climber is always the hardest - you don't know where to start, how long it will take you and maybe not even why you are doing this. Climbing up steep rock faces is an urge as natural as it is playful and fun. This course will put you face-to-face with these challenges in the safe confines of a guided course with certified instructors. We will help you separate fear from danger and in accordance with the highest safety standards and approved methods of the Austrian alpine club teach you how to become a rock climber. Climbing with your friends on preset routes, using belaying devices safely and tying bombproof knots will be only a few of the skills you will learn in this course.

Frequently asked questions

What gear to I have to bring?

All the required gear is included in this course but if you already own, bring your own personal gear to get used to it.


I am afraid of heights, will this be an issue for rock climbing?

For most of our participants their fear of heights doesn't in any way inhibit their learning process. On the contrary we see that most people with a healthy fear of dropping from heights focus better on observing the safety procedures and learn them faster.
