Wall climbing opportunities in Estonia

Climbing or rock climbing: climbing on an artificial wall or cliff with a rope, usually done in pairs - one person climbs and the other secures him with special safety equipment. A distinction is made between top safety (top roping) and undercover (lead climbing) climbing.

To start climbing, you need certain skills and knowledge, as the heights are often higher than in bouldering and belaying is done by another person using a rope. However, some indoor climbing halls have automatic belay stations, which require a quick training from an instructor. In other cases, you must complete the appropriate training beforehand or go climbing with an instructor/experienced friend.

Here are the options for climbing on artificial walls in Estonia, both with top and bottom protection.
