Climbing

​Our instructors are qualified and experienced climbers who love sharing their passion with our clients. We operate at a wide range of locations - from indoor gyms to purpose-built walls to local crags - we can suit a venue to your needs. School or youth groups or a corporate day or something different, we can tailor make a programme to suit your needs and budget.
Venues: Karamu, Extreme Edge, Wharepapa Rock, Pirongia Forest Park Lodge.

​Team Building 

​For groups who want more team involvement; we can run a ‘group belay’ system where all members of the team are clipped into the rope and are involved in the safety of the climber - a great team building activity, with everyone ‘hands on’ and involved.

​Skills Sessions, Training and Workshops

​For those groups who want more of an educational experience, we can offer a more challenging programme.  More specific climb training sessions that incorporate some, or all of the following: belay skills, knot workshops, bouldering and climbing techniques, anchor construction and personal safety  workshops. 

​Pirongia Forest Park Lodge

​The Pirongia Forest Park Lodge has its own climbing wall - approximately  9 meters tall and made by the NZ Navy about 30 years ago when the Lodge was built.  It was a feat of engineering of its time, tonnes of sprayed concrete onto a huge steel girder buried deep into the side of the mountain.
​
Suitable for all ages, the wall has two climbing areas: beginner to intermediate and intermediate to advanced. A great, safe,location that can be run rain or shine, to learn some new climbing skills.

​Karamu Crag

​If you are looking for outdoor climbing in a stunning location - then Karamu Crag is for you!

Set on local farmland - this little bit of climbing paradise is a neat little limestone crag.

A great venue for both beginner and intermediate climbers - suitable for ages 10 and up.

Incorporating both knot and belay workshops - we will have groups climbing up in no time!

This activity is usually run with Karamu Abseil and is the climbing element of our best adventure day “Karamu Adventure” - climb/abseil/cave.

Suits ages 10 plus - in particular teenage and adult groups.
