Climbing outdoors with Harrogate Climbing Centre

Go Climbing Outdoors!

Our outdoor climbing courses are designed to give you the skills and confidence to safely climb outdoors regardless of the grade you climb indoors. We offer a range of outdoor climbing courses covering basic movement on rock, through practical rope work, to technique masterclasses.

All HCC’s outdoor climbing courses include equipment, instruction and VAT. It is important that you read the recommended clothing list  before coming on any outdoor climbing course. Please also read through our Outdoor Climbing Course Terms and Conditions.

The meeting point for all courses will be at the venue at 10:00am. As transport is not provided, car-sharing is recommended and we will help in arranging this if possible.

Food is not provided with any of these courses. Please bring a packed lunch, as the venues may be quite remote.

There are outdoor climbing courses for everyone. If you’ve never been climbing outdoors before, the Outdoor Taster course is the day out for you. If you want to bring your kids, the Family Crag Day is a great introduction to the outdoors, as is our Outdoor Kids Climbing Day.

If you have some experience and want to become a more independent outdoor climber, the Outdoor Skills weekend, or one of either our Learn to Lead Sport or Learn to Lead Trad courses may be right for you.

Check out the drop-down Outdoor Climbing Courses menu at the top of the page for a full list!
