Induction
If you’ve tried a taster and think you’d like to become an independent climber, it’s time for an induction! During an induction course we cover skills such as fitting harnesses, tying knots and belaying (holding the ropes for the climber!). This course will enable you to register with us and use the centre independently. This is one of our most popular climbing courses in North Devon, and is ideal for those looking to get into climbing or parents wishing to introduce their children to the sport. We can also offer bouldering inductions for those who would like to use our bouldering cave independently.
