Climbing
Learn to Climb, the right way.
Climbing is a sport for all ages and abilities. Whether you are wondering how to get started, or you have climbed before and want to sharpen up, this is where the Bondringo climbing course will live.
Where this is up to
Honestly? Not built yet.
The navigation courses came first, because that is where most people asked for help. Climbing is in the queue behind them, and how fast it moves depends largely on how many people put their name down here.
No date promised. When there is one, the people on this list hear first.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need my own gear to start climbing?
No. Almost every indoor wall hires shoes and a harness, and most beginner sessions include everything you need. The gear guides in the course are there for when you decide to buy, so you spend money once rather than twice.
Is indoor climbing a good way to start?
It is the easiest way to start. The holds are obvious, the falls are controlled and there is always someone about. Most of the movement skills transfer straight to rock, which is why the course starts there.
When will the climbing course be available?
There is no date yet, and I would rather say that than invent one. Navigation came first because that is where most people asked for help. Put your name on the list and you will hear the moment it opens.
In the meantime
What is ready
Navigation and mountain safety are fully built, and the skills carry over to almost anything you do outdoors. Start there while this one catches up.
