WHY THIS CLIMB
A two-day cliff climbing course
Two days to learn how to be on vertical ground.
Group chat a couple of days before
Come alone, leave with new friends
The experience
A weekend given entirely to climbing, in a spectacular and safe setting: the Lantana crag, below the Presolana. Whether you are starting out or want to sharpen your technique, the course builds up in stages and joins practice, enjoyment and instruction: we work on basic movement, coordination and technique, with exercises designed for people who genuinely want to learn.
5 reasons to come - two full days on the crag, not a one-hour taster - the Lantana crag, ideal for learning - a gradual approach, starting from basic movement - the Presolana setting all around - growing as a climber, not just trying it once
Who it suits Beginners and improvers alike: no experience needed, just the will to have a go.
The thrill of vertical ground, learnt properly: come with the Guidders.

BEFORE YOU GO
Vertigo or fear of heights: tell your guide before you set off, not on the rock face. Sleep well and have breakfast: a via ferrata takes arms, legs and focus for hours
✓
IN YOUR BACKPACK
Helmet, harness and certified via ferrata set (if you don't have them you can rent them, your guide checks them at the meeting point), via ferrata gloves, stiff-soled shoes, 1.5 litres of water and a snack. Always with you: a plaster, an antiseptic wipe and a small bag for rubbish
