25 - Sunday 26 November 2017
Venue: Awesome Walls Dublin
If you’ve got a head for heights and a passion for scaling them, you should check out the Irish Lead Climbing Championship at Awesome Walls in Finglas.
Lead climbing is a specific mountaineering style where the lead climber wears a harness tied to a rope and their partner feeds up the rope as the climber gets higher, all the while prepared to keep the rope secure in the event of a tumble.
It is a style of climbing well suited to those without an aversion to risk - adrenaline-seekers, if you will. Falls are more dramatic, the dangers are greater, and it is altogether quite thrilling.
The best junior and senior lead climbers in the country will be pitted against one another at this championship event, so don’t look down if you are an intermediate or advanced climber and you want to put yourself to the test.
If heights make you queasy, fear not. Stand and look on as braver souls take on the rock wall; it will still be loads of fun.
