What the day feels like
What the session feels like
The flow is compact and focused: arrival and check-in, a brief instructor-led safety and belay introduction, then up to 60 minutes of climbing across multiple routes on the 7.3m wall. Automatic belays remove the need for manual top-rope belaying, so climbers can concentrate on movement and route choice while an instructor supervises several participants at once.
