What is Rock climbing? Rock climbing is a sport in which participants climb up or across natural rock formations or man-made rock walls with the goal of reaching the summit of a formation or the endpoint of a pre-defined route.
Rock climbing tests a climber's strength, endurance, agility, and balance along with mental control.
You don't need to be young or extremely fit to pick up climbing. Many people start climbing later on in their life, and there are excellent climbers of all ages, including many climbers well over fifty.
Rock climbing is all about discovering the natural world around and as part of this process discover oneself. It will bring you to breathtaking peaks with amazing view and will definitely give you a unique perspective on the world below you. You'll get to achieve some knowledge about yourself and create bond and friendships with the people you climb with.
Learning to climb is very much like learning to ride a bike or ski down a snowy slope. You'll never forget the basic moves, but will need some practice to perfect them.
