Climbing on the big sea cliffs of Swanage is an experience not to be missed. Unfortunately, due to the seriousness of these cliffs and difficulties of access, route finding and escape, many climbers never get the full "Swanage Experience".

This course, tailored to your individual requirements, will provide you with what you need to get the most out of climbing at Swanage. You will be able to second routes that you perhaps would not attempt on your own. It will also include information on route finding, abseil points for different areas and where to climb in various sea states and weather conditions. Techniques such as abseil backups, escaping routes and safeguarding topping out will also be covered.
