Self Rescue

Overview Locations Gallery Testimonials

This course is for climbers who have done our Multi Pitch course or Traditional Climbing courses or climbers with multi-pitch climbing experience, who would like to learn the vital skills of improvised and self rescue.

 

Would you know what to do if the worst were to happen? How to escape from a sea cliff when the tide is rising? How to abseil with an unconscious casualty? The best time to gain these skills is before you need them.

 

Often what holds us back from adventures is fear of the unknown or fear that if you get stuck you won’t have the skills to get yourself out of trouble. Let us show you the tricks of the trade.


This course focuses on improvised rescue and self rescue techniques in both single and multi-pitch environments.

 

Where next?

A great way to work on any aspects of Rock & Sun's courses or holidays is our Private tuition.
