Climb

Intro Climbing

For people who want to touch rock without being rushed. We cover movement, belaying, lowering and simple crag habits. If the mountain crags are greasy or gusty, the useful version of the day may be indoor wall skills rather than pretending the forecast is kinder than it is.

Rock

Full Day Rock Skills

A longer day for footwork, anchors, safe rope handling and choosing climbs that make sense for the group. Ratio is 1:6 because a busy rope line is not teaching.

Paddle

Intro Kayak

Llyn Padarn is our normal first water. You need to be able to swim unless we have agreed a school inclusion case with extra staffing before the booking is confirmed.

Journey

Kayak Journey

The full-day journey uses Llyn Padarn or the sheltered Menai Strait. The point is to travel well, not to chase wind for drama.

Weekend

Two-Day Climb And Paddle

Two small days with one local instructor team. Maximum 8 places keeps the weekend clean, with time to adjust kit properly and answer questions between venues.
