Abseiling
Abseiling is a technique that climbers, cavers and others use to get quickly, easily and safely down a pitch. Although strictly not a sport in itself, abseiling is certainly good fun. We can provide training and then you can experience the thrill of adventure activities like abseiling for yourself. There are a variety of crags allowing you to start on something easy and then work up to a level which is very scary indeed!
