the last 15 years, we at Rock and Ice have built up an enviable reputation for quality rock climbing holidays, outdoor instruction, private lessons, coaching and mountaineering courses.
We welcome all enquiries from the total novice to the accomplished.

and guiding, thus enabling you to progress to the levels you wish to
attain more quickly and efficiently than through typical outdoor centres.

from a one day lesson, a two day structured course to a week long climbing

Unlike other centres we arrange the course dates to fit in with your
valuable recreational time. If you have
some spare time we can fill it.
