Scale to new heights and admire the beautiful scenery during this fun-filled outdoor adventure activity. Under the watchful eye of our team of highly experienced and qualified instructors you will learn new skills and push the boundaries of your comfort zone. All of our sessions take place in a safe and well-managed environment without compromising on fun! Climbing on the Jurassic Coast Dorset is the perfect destination to try your hand at climbing or abseiling. Our coastline is a popular climbing venue, famed for having a wide variety of routes with options for various types of climbing. The aim of our beginners climbing and abseiling sessions is to familiarise participants with equipment and teach core climbing skills, including moving across rocks, identifying suitable hand and foot holds, belaying a climbing partner and abseiling safely after the climb. We adhere to a strict ‘challenge by choice’ ethos, whereby participants will only climb to a height they are comfortable with. That being said, we foster a supportive environment where we instil the confidence needed to conquer fears. All of our climbing and abseiling sessions take place at Dancing Ledge and Hedbury Quarry on the Dorset Coast. From the elevated an unique position you’ll be able to truly admire the Jurassic Coastline in all its glory and take in the stunning sea views. Suitable for all abilities At Cumulus Outdoors all our sessions are bespoke and tailored to meet the needs of the group. We welcome complete beginners, as well as those with some climbing experience, including indoor climbers looking to make the transition outside.
