Rock Climbing Courses

Indoor Wall Climbing – 4 evenings

This course will give you all the skills you need to take up the very popular sport of Indoor Climbing. Learn the ropes in comfort over those cold winter nights at our newly constructed Indoor Climbing Wall. Our Climbing Wall is also open regularly for public sessions. See our training calendar for details.

Introduction to Rockclimbing – 4 evenings

This course is suitable for beginners and includes Indoor Climbing, Outdoor Climbing, Rope work, belaying & equipment.

Belay Training – 2-3 evenings

This course is designed to bring climbers to a level where they can safely use the rockwall without the supervision of an Instructor. This training focuses solely on safety, equipment and belay skills. Once climbers reach the required standard they are then ‘ approved’ and can access the rockwall as detailed below:

Indoor Rockwall – Public access

Kilfinane OEC is home to a state of the art Indoor Rockwall. The wall has been designed for use by all abilities and includes bouldering areas, 19 roped climbs, 14 lead routes & a belay ledge for practising multi-pitch skills.

Our rockwall is open for Public access but must be pre-booked as the wall is very busy. Our Public access allows climbers who have successfully completed belay training to use the rockwall by themselves without supervision by KOEC staff. The rockwall can be use by ‘approved’ climbers at any time when the Centre is open and the rockwall is not is use for groups. Please contact our office to book as opening hours vary each week.
