Why with us
Our course of climbing on bolt-protected routes lasts four days. As a standard, classes are divided into two weekends. However, part or all of the training can also be completed during the week. The training takes place in groups of four. Trainees climb in two teams of two, which allows you to optimize the training process. The advantage of a small group is the possibility of individual work of the instructor with each participant.
The course of climbing on bolt-protected routes takes place in the northern part of the Kraków-Częstochowa Upland (Jura Krakowsko-Częstochowska). This area is less crowded than the southern part of Jura, so it is possible to freely choose the most suitable routes for a given student group in given conditions. The northern part of Jura, and especially its less frequented areas, where we operate during the course of climbing on bolt-protected routes, also allow climbing on a much less slippery rock than in the most popular regions of Jura.
