THE ULTIMATE HOLIDAY CLIMBING ESCAPE
Tired of spending your holidays indoors? Join the Rockbusters crew for an intensive week of sport climbing in the winter sun paradise of Sella, Costa Blanca. While Europe shivers, you’ll be chalking up under blue skies, tackling world-class routes on perfect limestone, and celebrating your sends with a like-minded community of passionate climbers.
Costa Blanca offers the ideal winter climbing sanctuary with comfortable temperatures (15-20°C), over 2,000 routes within a short radius, and quick approaches to crags. Sella’s diverse sectors provide everything from technical face climbing to stamina-testing overhangs—all with the Mediterranean as your backdrop. After full days on the wall, return to our climber-friendly villa to share stories, analyze the day’s progress, and plan tomorrow’s conquests over authentic Spanish meals.
COURSE HIGHLIGHTS
WHO THIS IS FOR
This retreat is specifically designed for:
Whether you’re working to break into a new grade, refine specific techniques, or simply escape the winter for a week of intensive climbing, our coaches will tailor the experience to your goals.
Imagine waking up on Christmas morning, not to the sound of wrapping paper and holiday chaos, but to the gentle warmth of Spanish sunshine and the quiet anticipation of the day’s climbing ahead. This isn’t just a vacation—it’s a deliberate choice to invest in your passion when everyone else is stuck in holiday routines.
While your friends back home post photos of gray skies and freezing temperatures, you’ll be sharing sun-soaked sends on perfect limestone. Costa Blanca offers reliable December climbing conditions that most of Europe can only dream of. Trade snow shovels for quickdraws and holiday stress for the focused calm that comes with a good climbing day.
This isn’t about simply accumulating outdoor mileage (though you’ll do plenty of that). The Rockbusters approach means targeted coaching when it matters most—while you’re on the wall facing real challenges. One week of structured climbing often translates to months of self-directed progress. Many climbers report breaking through grade plateaus that had frustrated them for years.
There’s something magical about spending a week with people who understand your obsession with tiny crimps and celebrate your sends as if they were their own. The climbing partnerships formed during these intensive weeks often become lifelong connections. When you’re pushing your limits alongside others doing the same, the community energy becomes contagious.
Let’s be honest—how many holiday seasons truly stand out in your memory? This year could be different. Years from now, you won’t remember another turkey dinner, but you’ll never forget the feeling of topping out your hardest route yet with the Mediterranean sparkling below and new friends cheering you on.
The question isn’t why you should join the Rockbusters Christmas retreat—it’s why you’d choose any other way to close out your climbing year.
WAKE UP. CLIMB. REPEAT.
