Description

Welcome to Climbing Queenstown - where your climbing adventures begin.

We operate in some of the most beautiful scenery throughout the Queenstown and Southern Lakes area including Queenstown Hill and the stunning Remarkables mountains. Choose from Via Ferrata, our fixed rung climbing experience, abseiling, rock climbing, hiking or mountaineering.

Rock Climbing – Half Day
This actioned packed 4 hours requires no previous experience. Feel the natural rock under your finger tips as you scale the Queenstown cliff faces. Due to the extreme nature of this activity we have low client to instructor ratios, ensuring your safety at all times. We have a selection of climbs from low angle beginner routes to extreme overhangs to test any adrenalin junky. Expect minimal driving time and lots of bang for your buck with qualified instructors.

Rock Climbing – Full Day
Welcome to the broadest realms of Rock Climbing. Our Introduction Day covers basic climbing techniques in a remote and stunning location. Expect no crowds and a relaxed learning environment with some of the best rock climbers in the region. The emphasis is on learning current techniques, as well as experiencing lots of climbing. The day is a solid 8 hours which incorporates climbing, abseiling and learning with a very experienced and qualified instructor; this is one premier adventure.

We can also cater for experienced rock climbers. If you would like to up skill to multi pitch climbing, natural protection climbing, hard sport climbing or any other specific area of rock climbing, contact us to tailor your own private rock climbing day. One on one tuition.

Abseil
Abseiling or Rappelling is descending down a fixed rope off a cliff face. This activity is mentally challenging as you step over the edge and trust the equipment and yourself. Full instruction is given while you gain the confidence to abseil to the ground. Again no previous experience is required for this activity and all the cliffs are close to town, so there’s little down time driving and more time on the rock. This adventure guarantees a minimum of two abseils per client with a variety of cliff sizes to choose from.

Via Ferrata (Rungway)
The first and only Via Ferrata in the Southern Hemisphere. It’s a way of scaling cliff faces using permanently fixed rungs, ladders and cables. This climbing system was used in the World Wars to access troops safely through mountain terrain without having specific climbing skills. Via Ferrata’s are a great introduction into climbing and are more about the journey and views, although you can still expect big exposure. No previous experience is required and we have a variety of levels from the absolute beginner to the more adventure seeker. This activity is close to town and is enjoyed in small personal groups where everyone climbs together. Trips run daily in both summer and winter and it’s possible to climb under most weather conditions. This is a unique, rewarding experience incorporating both mental and physical challenges.

The “Combo” Rock/Abseil Experience
This 6 hour experience will leave you with the sublime satisfaction of a complete adventure day. Either choose rock climbing or the Via Ferrata and both of these activities will be complemented with a thrilling abseil. After the morning activities your guide will transport you back into town for a quick lunch, once fueled up it’s off for some more adventure. This activity requires no previous experience and is a great introduction to the rock, rungs, rope and is perfect for a group of friend or a family.
