Description
Rock climbing can seem intimidating, especially if you’ve never tried it before. But this sport is surprisingly accessible if you know where to begin, and I would love to show you the ropes on this 3-day course for beginners!
Our course will take place at the Llano climbing school in Quirós, located in the north of Spain, in the Principality of Asturias. This historic region’s landscapes lend themselves perfectly to rock climbing and are home to some of the best sport climbing spots in the country.
First, we’ll learn the most important and essential techniques of rock climbing and all the safety procedures we’ll have to take once we start. Then, on our second day, we’ll put our knowledge into practice and experience our first climb. Finally, on our third and last day, we’ll practice some more challenging climbs and each participant will be evaluated. For a more detailed description of the trip, take a look at the itinerary below!
Regarding our accommodation, we’ll stay at the Casa Rural Corrada de Torales which will be the ideal place to rest after a fun and challenging day of climbing.
