Rock Climbing Courses
Here at Rock Solid all of our courses are totally bespoke. Once you’ve booked we’ll work out exactly what you want out of the day and tailor it to your goals. The courses below should give you some idea of the options although we can run a day / course looking at anything you’d like. It’s not all instruction either; we do guided days and coaching sessions looking more at movement and technique (this is really where you’ll improve as a climber!). Whatever you’ve got in mind, we’ve got you covered.
Trad Climbing Courses
The UK is famous for its ‘traditional climbing’. Trad climbing is actually generally very safe, you just need to know what you’re doing and pick your routes. We have a variety of trad climbing courses on offer. Are you interested in climbing your first trad route? Maybe you want to break in to E grades or explore some of the world’s best sea cliff climbing? Wherever you’re at, we can safely facilitate. Come and get inspired!
Sport Climbing Courses
We love sport climbing! The simplicity of clipping bolts, experiencing the movement and focusing on pure performance is really good fun. If you’re looking to move from indoor climbing to outdoor we can help you with this transition. If you’d like to push your sport climbing to the next level join us on an advanced coaching and movement course. Crucial skills like aiding, reading the rock, good movement and efficient red-pointing will help push your climbing and break through to the next grade. To improve quickly you need to go for the low hanging fruit; technique and skills are often holding people back, rarely strength and power!
Mountaineering (Scrambling) Courses
Scrambling (or mountaineering) is basically like long, continuous easy climbing. Scrambling skills differ from climbing in that you’re always moving between walking, scrambling and climbing terrain. Being able to do this efficiently and safely is the dark art! If you’d like a day in the mountains being guided on some of the UK’s best scrambles, we’ve got you covered. We can also teach you the skills you need to tackle big scrambles or alpine routes by yourself. North Wales is the perfect training ground for the Alps!
Hill-Walking Courses
If you’re looking for a private hiking / hill-walking experience we can take you on a journey through some of North Wales’ most breath-taking scenery. A guide is not only there to keep you safe; we’ll choose a suitable and interesting route, keep you on track, point out interesting plants and animals, explain the history and tell the stories, myths and legends of the land.
Rest Day Adventures
Everyone needs a rest day! And sometimes you just get rained off…. Our sister company ‘Snowdonia Adventure Activities’ specialises in outdoor activities and if you’re looking for an awesome rest day then the Canyon Xtreme trip will not disappoint.
