Abseiling Adventure

Perth
Activity Code STGP100

Highlights

  • Receive a safety briefing by friendly and skilled instructors
  • View an abseiling demonstration and then participate in a short practical session using these skills on the ground to reinforce the techniques
  • Enjoy the thrill of abseiling with the encouraging direction of the instructors
  • Seek further challenge by attempting abseiling face first down the cliff
  • Try the bonus of another roping activity, rock climbing up to 18 metres

Overview

The day commences with an introduction and welcome by our friendly skilled instructors followed by a venue safety briefing, an overview of all roping equipment used on the program and fitting of personal abseiling gear.

A demonstration of abseiling techniques followed by a short practical session using these skills on level ground helps to reinforce these techniques. A final briefing on safe roping practices and now it's off to do the first descent, about 15 metres high on the introductory face.

Safety is the highest priority, ensured with qualified instructors, well-maintained equipment and a participant ratio of 1:8.

It's nearly all downhill from here (except for the walk back up between descents). As confidences and skills develop under the encouraging direction of the instructors, the group moves on to vertical, over hanging and higher rock faces.

Our aim is to help everyone develop the confidence to tackle the main face (approximately 50 metres) by the end of the day. Those of you seeking a further challenge may wish to attempt the exhilaration of a forward run downs, (abseiling face first down the cliff).

What makes this abseiling day different is the bonus of another roping activity, rock climbing up to 18 metres.
