The rope goes up. You follow. 🧗

PGM CRAG DAY is Affinity's outdoor roped climbing session — a guided introduction to climbing on real rock with ropes, in the company of your community. Designed for beginners and those new to outdoor climbing, this is where gym confidence meets mountain air.

Roped climbing opens up a completely different dimension of the outdoors.

Routes go higher, terrain gets more varied, and the skills you build here are the foundation for everything alpine that follows.

We've designed this day to be welcoming, well-paced, and genuinely fun — because your first time on a crag should feel like an invitation, not a test.

What to expect:
🧗 Introduction to outdoor roped climbing and crag etiquette
🪢 Basic rope systems, anchors, and safety briefing
🏔️ Top-rope climbing on real outdoor rock
🤝 Guided instruction from experienced Affinity leaders
😤 Encouragement, community, and probably some adrenaline

Gear rental is available — you don't need to own any equipment to join.
