Climbing, Scrambling and Mountain Skills Courses
The Rock Climbing Company offers rock climbing, scrambling and mountain skills courses in Snowdonia and Spain .
Our climbing instruction covers all the traditional mountain skills such as navigation, scrambling and rock climbing and we can deliver these courses at all levels of ability and experience.
We arrange climbing instruction that progresses at a rate you are comfortable with, teaches you exactly what you want to know and gives you an adventure experience that you will remember for a long time.
All our climbing courses are available on a daily basis and every course is constructed around your individual needs and delivered within a safe and interesting framework.
The following pages hopefully give a feel for the climbing instruction that we can offer, but this is only a broad outline because everybody's needs are different - some will want an adventurous day in the mountains for their family learning how to climb, some will want to lead their first routes with an instructor close by on a rope, whilst others will want specific tuition on rope work and rescue techniques.
The courses are run by Silvia Fitzpatrick, who has the Mountain Instructor Award and is a full member of the Association of Mountaineering Instructors (AMI). Silvia is also a fully qualified PE and Modern Languages teacher.
Silvia has been climbing at a high level for over 20 years and has an impressive mountaineering CV; North Face of the Eiger, 8b sport, E6 trad and first female ascent of Cerro Fitzroy in Patagonia. At the same time Silvia regularly works with a local organisation providing vocational outdoor activities to clients with learning disabilities. Thus Silvia is well able to offer advice to all levels of climbers, whether they are just starting out or want to gain specific rock skills at an advanced level.
We run our courses in North Wales and Andalucia because they have superb mountain areas with a huge variety of crags and routes that allow us to offer a full range of climbing and scrambling instruction.
The Spanish climbing holidays can also be offered with accommodation provided as we have just finished renovating a lovely house in the mountain village of Villanueva del Rosario in Andalucia.
The dates, venues and duration of all our climbing and scrambling instruction is by arrangement and totally customisable. Simply call or email and we'll try to construct a program that works for you.
