Alpstein, including overnight stay
Basic multi-pitch course | Climbing weekend with application tours
During the two days, we will teach you everything you need to know about multi-pitch climbing so that you can climb simple multi-pitches independently and safely on your own after the course or deepen and expand your knowledge in a more advanced course with us. Fun and climbing are never neglected!

Endurance
Do you finally want to venture from the climbing garden into the longer tours and not be back on the ground after just one pitch, but instead get through pitch after pitch? On these two days we will climb on super rock and learn a few tips and tricks along the way. We will learn the basic techniques of multi-pitch climbing or refresh them and have enough time to go into more advanced techniques, tips and tricks. We will also show you the basics of climbing with mobile belay devices, i.e. cams and wedges. We put what we have learnt into practice straight away and go on a suitable multi-pitch route. You will learn a lot on these training and application days and, if you wish, you can also lead climb yourself and gain confidence in the equipment and technique.
