One of the most important things when climbing is that you are absolutely sure about how to belay another person. Beginners should complete a course where they will learn the right technique to keep themselves and the person climbing safe at all times. Almost all climbing centres in Tirol offer such courses. Besides that, climbers will need the requisite equipment. You will need a climbing harness, climbing shoes, a belay device and chalk. Chalk comes in a range of forms, from powder to a ball and even liquid.
Regular training is essential to improve your strength and technique. Climbing indoors on a regular basis can therefore be a big help when it comes to climbing outdoors. Another advantage is being able to practise certain things in a safe and controlled environment like clipping in the rope, falling from a certain height and belaying another person. When it comes to climbing outdoors, we have put together a list of the best climbing routes in Tirol.
