Rock Climbing Rock Climbing began as a sport over 100 years ago. The idea is to climb rocks using only your hands and feet. The equipment, such as ropes, is for your safety not to help you climb. It is a very exciting sport. Once you have learnt the basics, you can go on to do harder and more thrilling climbs.



We are going to Extreme Edge in Panmure to do some indoor rock climbing. There will be many different slabs, walls and overhangs. They have lots of different walls depending on a person’s ability. 

Indoor climbing is a great place to start this sport. When you’ve grown in confidence you can then go on to enjoy so many amazing places that only rock climbers can go to.
