Age And The Outdoor Experience

Coming across the blog of the Rockbrook Camp describing rock climbing activities for young teens. Teaching climbing techniques safety and familiarizing them with equipment would be the first step, and the second would be putting all they have learned into practice.

it made me think that doing these activities with the children can be a great thing. There is no reason that children won’t be able to master rock climbing, sure they need guidance and practice but with energy and inclination to cope with challenges they can really enjoy mastering this skill. If they start young don’t be surprised if they end up as better climber than you after some time.
