Taster Sessions - Rock and Rapid

Want To Try Climbing?

Children Driving You Up The Wall?

Not Sure What You Are Doing?

A Taster Session is for Adults, Children, Families and Groups.

A “Taster Session” is a one-hour lesson with one of our instructors. Anyone from 6 to 96 years of age can take part in a taster session and we have challenges to suit all ages and abilities.

The equipment is provided and we get you climbing straight away. There is no ‘rope work’ for you to learn on a taster. It is ‘all about the climbing’. You will get an hour climbing and will be encouraged and coached by your instructor.

We run Taster Sessions all day, everyday – but we suggest you call and book in advance. You can call us on 01769 379002.

"It was awesome!"

My daughter stayed here as part of a residential trip with her school in June. She says it was awesome! The climbing wall was really cool and the zip wire was great.

"Rock and Rapid are very flexible to everyones needs"

All of the staff are very patient, great behaviour management and the children were challenged to achieve. Rock and Rapid are very flexible to everyones needs. The overall safety was excellent, but they allow children to take the necessary risks.
