A practical Introduction to Roped Scrambling session where you’ll learn how to move safely and efficiently over steeper, more exposed ground using a rope for security. You’ll cover the basics of ropework, simple protection, and team movement while building confidence on real terrain. It’s all about staying smooth, safe, and in control when the ground gets more serious than a simple walk. Perfect for anyone ready to step up from hillwalking or grade 1 scrambles into more technical mountain travel.
