Rock Climbing

Rock Climbing Activity for School Groups and Educational Centers.

Rock climbing is an ideal activity to engage with schools for unique experiences and to step out of the comfort zone. While climbing, our concentration is heightened, fostering a mindful connection with the present moment. Consequently, it becomes a way to learn to focus on the here and now. As the activity takes place outdoors in nature, it also provides relaxation and tranquility. All the while, we challenge ourselves, pushing beyond our comfort zones. Rock climbing offers numerous interesting benefits while engaging in physical exercise:

Benefits of Rock Climbing for School Groups and Educational Centers:

• Encourages teamwork and cooperation.
• Promotes confidence and self-esteem in students.
• Develops problem-solving skills and decision-making abilities.

• Provides a fun and exhilarating way to engage in physical exercise.

For these reasons, we propose this ideal activity for school groups and educational centers to experience outdoor adventures in nature.

Is it difficult?

This serves as an initial introduction to rock climbing, so it won't be difficult. We will go to an area with several beginner routes where each participant can experience rock climbing. There will be routes of varying difficulty levels, allowing those who wish to challenge themselves to do so. Always with maximum safety. The climbing will be conducted under our supervision (we are certified climbing instructors).

From what age?

We recommend climbing from 6th grade onwards, ideal for secondary school.

How does the activity work?

Group welcome. Explanation of the activity.

We will walk to the rock climbing area. Once there, we will equip ourselves with harnesses and helmets.

Explanation of how we will climb, how we will belay, the different elements we will encounter, instructions to follow, etc.

We will start climbing in pairs or groups of 3. While some climb on top rope (as seconds, with the rope from above), others belay, and the third assists the belayer. All under the supervision of climbing instructors, closely monitoring each group. We will rotate in these same groups so that everyone performs all the functions and learns to climb and belay.

Once the climbing is finished, we will remove the gear and walk back to where transportation will pick us up.
