You too might be able to get a farmers tan as Good as Alex's if you book one of our Outdoor courses. This year we have some great new courses for you which are ready to book now – with limited places.

For total beginners we have a fun Outdoor Taster.

If you'd like to learn some of the skills you need to get climbing outdoors on your own try our Intro to Sport Climbing or Intro to Trad courses. These are useful even if you've done a little or need a refresher. There's no harm solidifying your knowledge to stay safe.

Finally for those looking for more of an adventure, we offer a Guided Multi-Pitch. Want more info or to book, visit our website https://www.theclimbingacademy.com/locations/the-church/outdoor/
