Our Private Instruction Courses are ideal for a group of like minded companions; either looking for an introduction to mountaineering or further developing your alpine climbing techniques. Essentially you nominate the dates and duration, and we design a course syllabus around your skill base and objectives.
A minimum of two people is required which allows you to extend yourself as a climbing partnership.
The emphasis of our instruction courses is on expanding and re-developing the essential skills:
Comprehensive course notes are supplied, which will assist in your trip planning, equipment selection and purchase advice, what you can expect to be doing on a day to day basis, and much more.
