Saturday Sport Climbing in North Wales
2 people attending
6 places left
Whether you're an indoor climber wanting to try the real thing outdoors or a seasoned veteran, Castle Inn has something to offer, with a great selection of well protected routes, with a good bunch at the easier end of the scale.
If you are not confident lead belaying or lead climbing, please message the leader as we may need to balance the number of experienced and novice climbers.
Once we have exhausted all the climbing here, the plan is to head over to Tram Stop Quarry in Llandudno, which is a small crag overlooking the town. It has a smaller selection of routes, but is closer to town and some good pubs which would a fitting way to end the day.

What to bring
You must bring your own climbing shoes, helmet and harness. We may be able to lend helmets and harnesses if you message the leader well in advance of the event (2 weeks minimum).
If you have ropes, a sling, screw gate, belay plate, quick draws and any other relevant sport climbing gear, please do bring these too, but be sure to check you're equipment if it's your first outing for a while.
Appropriate warm, preferably windproof, clothing will be needed. A waterproof jacket should also be bought in case of rain.
Sun lotion is best applied before leaving home, to avoid greasy hands on the crag.
It can be advisable to use insect repellent to help ward off the midges (but don't get it on any climbing equipment)!
Clothing: pack for all weathers, a windproof and warm layers, t-shirt and either shorts, combats or tracksuit bottoms. Don’t wear jeans or trousers that hamper movement. If you have any OutdoorLads branded clothing then please wear it as it will give the group a good level of visibility
