Wallclimbing

Open hour

After a climbing course you can use the climbing wall and the boulder wall at the Sports Centre Zernike at regular open hours guided by a professional teacher. You need to know how to belay (do the security) a climber safe, if you want to join in the open hours! During the open hours you can use the gear of the ACLO. There is no need for a sportpartner during the open hours.

For the climbing shoes you have to pay a €1,- rent by vouche. At the Sports Information Desk are Climbing vouchers for €10,- and €5,- for sale.

Course

This beginners course draws much attention to safety. Learning how to “belay” your climbing partner, tying up knots and dealing with the material are the most important aspects of this course. Of course climbing-techniques will be sufficiently trained and developed as well. Because of the safety the course is 10 lessons. You literally have the life of your partner in your hands. The 10th lesson we are going to Bjoeks ( the biggest climbing hall in the Netherlands ) When you want to join this it will cost you € 6,- ( i.s.o. €11,-) At the end of the course you can do an exam to get a climbing license.

IMPORTANT: You need to attend the first two lessons to complete the course! If you miss one of these lessons, you cannot continue the course.
