We hold climbing practice sessions using ropes in outdoor fields. Lead climbing, multi-pitch climbing, crack climbing.
There are 2 courses for lead climbing: [Super Beginner Practice Meeting] and [Practice Meeting].
For those who are just starting climbing, such as those who want to step up from walking to rocky ridge variations, and those who want to practice leading and mastering on an easy route, [Lead Climbing Super Beginner Practice] Meeting] is recommended. You can also practice rappelling at the lead climbing super beginner practice meeting.
All necessary gear (shoes, helmet, harness, chalk) can be rented (550 yen per item).
If you have climbing experience at a bouldering gym or a lead gym, but have no experience with outside leads, we recommend the [Lead Climbing Practice Meeting] for beginners.
This month, it will be held in Yugawara and Makiwa. Yugawara is popular as a rocky place in winter because it is warm.
Summer is hot! “It’s been vacant since winter.” Also, you can get there by train, so you won’t have to worry about traffic jams!
