An exhilarating part of camp life, many kids see the high and low ropes courses as their favourite activity on camp. Camps have different course set ups, which can range from man made equipment to climbing on rock faces. Camps can also have facilities beyond the climbing wall itself and so your daily work is likely to include zip lines, trapeze and other inventive challenges!

The kids coming to your lessons will have differing ability levels, so you'll never have two classes which are exactly the same. You'll be helping to improve the skills of some experienced climbers, whilst also helping beginners over their fear of heights. What ever the skill level, you're sure to have a totally different instructing experience to anything you've ever done in the UK! Camps will also vary in their instruction style; some may be based around on-site climbing in a lesson format, whilst others may focus on climbing trips/expeditions, which have you off-site for days at a time. But, be sure that whatever type of camp you work at this summer you'll get to experience every activity they have to offer!
