Rappelling Training
Rappelling and rock climbing are the most rapidly growing outdoor sports. Young people are now engaging in them with various degrees of knowledge and ability.
We can teach you the basic skills of ropes and safety and prepare you for an outdoor adventure with your Scouts.
Rappelling/rock climbing course training is valid for two years. Completion of one session (two and a half days) will train or re-train an individual for two years.
