For the Rockbusters team climbing is not just a sport, it’s what we eat, drink, breathe, and sleep - it’s what we live for. Our Sport Climbing Camp allows you to get a taste of what we mean and become part of our climbing crew.

The main focus of our Sport Climbing Camp is on quality climbing, so it’s aimed at climbers with some experience but we are not pushing fit and motivated beginners away. We will provide all necessary coaching and go through all safety and technical details so everyone can do as much climbing as possible and enjoy climbing with each other. We will push you to achieve more during your stay, arming you with all the necessary techniques and safety measures before you try anything new.

During the week we will turn you into a confident leader of any sport climbing routes and make you a better climber overall no matter your current grade or level. Our professional guides and coaches will show you all the sport climbing tricks you may use to stay safe and to be happy trying routes beyond your comfort zone.

As well as building confidence, and strength and taking on some tough climbs, this is a Rockbusters course, so you can also expect a hefty dose of fun! We love what we do and that comes across in all of our trips and programs. And… we like to party almost as much as we like to climb, so get ready to have a blast on and off the rock. The informal, fun atmosphere of our courses is famous, but we never let this distract us from your climbing progression.

 

Minimum of 3 participants. In other cases, we will offer different trips/courses of the same or higher value or issue a full refund.
