Rock Climbing Programs

Of all the ways to move through the mountains, rock climbing has to be one of the most unforgettable. With just a harness and a rope (and an experienced guide on the other end) you can make your way up rocky crags mountain goat-style.

An encouraging smile from your guide, a steady grip on the rock face in front of you and the motivation to reach up and grab the next hold – believe it or not, that’s all you need to be a climber.
