Sport Climbing ropes typically don’t exceed 80m. This inevitably leads to the next question: How do we scale walls beyond 40m*?
Multi-pitch climbing allows a climbing team to scale walls beyond the length of the rope through multiple belay stations (a.k.a pitches). Such climbing discipline requires key skills such as lead-climbing, abseiling, rope management and more.
All amply rewarded with an adrenaline pumped experience and an exhilarating view at the end of the climb. Lean multi-pitch climbing with Upwall’s SSCMF accredited SNCS 3 Multi-Pitch class.
