Rock Climbing Holidays

On rock climbing holidays with Rock & Sun you will climb more and harder than ever before. Our very experienced guides know the areas where you want to climb incredibly well.

On rock climbing holidays with Rock & Sun you will get to the crags quicker (we’ll pick you up), you’ll climb higher quality routes (we work with climbing communities in many countries to bolt and maintain crags), you’ll go to quieter crags and your guide is a highly qualified instructor, so your climbing ability and technique will improve. Furthermore, we realise you are enjoying your well-deserved holiday, so there will be time to relax, hang out and enjoy the sun.

Rock & Sun’s most popular Climbing Holidays

Different types of rock climbing holidays

The Rock & Sun Sport Climbing Holiday is the most popular of our climbing holidays. It focuses on climbing as many good quality single pitch rock climbs as possible during the week. There is ample opportunity to learn the skills for lead climbing, and your dedicated guide will also offer climbing coaching.

The Long Weekend Climbing is similar to the Sport Climbing Holiday, but for those who have less time off work. It is the perfect way to have a short holiday, climb three days and improve your climbing skills and technique.

If you are particularly interested in becoming a better climber, then the Outdoor Climbing Coaching is your best choice. During the Coaching week, which we offer in two different levels, many different subjects will be tackled to improve your climbing. The main emphasis is on efficient movement patterns and personal video analysis. Besides that, there is attention for routefinding, onsighting and redpointing strategies.

Our Multi-Pitch Holidays are unforgettable climbing experiences. It is truly exceptional to climb up high, away from it all, overlooking Costa Blanca’s coastline, or the Andaman sea.

On the other end of the spectrum, nice and close to the ground, Rock & Sun’s Bouldering Trips are very popular. Our guides know the best boulder problems in the forest of Fontainebleau or Albarracin. They will help you make the transition from indoor to outdoor bouldering.

For those interested in learning how to trad climb, we recommend coming on a Trad Climbing Course in the Costa Blanca. With its very featured rock, an abundance of easy routes, and good weather, it is the ideal location to learn to place your own protection.

Finally, our Family Climbing Holiday is a tailor-made sport climbing holiday for families in the Costa Blanca. Tell us about your experience levels and aspirations and we will create a package to suit your needs.

Blue seas, white beaches and terraced fruit groves set against panoramic mountains, the Costa Blanca has it all.

Kalymnos

Kalymnos is a beautiful Greek island. Its fantastic limestone cliffs make it a paradise for sport climbing at all grades. Just add sun, sea, secluded beaches, friendly people, delicious food and great climbing conditions in the spring and autumn, and you understand why it’s a world-class climbing destination.

Thailand

Thailand has been the tropical sport climbing destination of choice for about thirty years already. The first of the exotic climbing destinations and still considered by many to be the best! Rock & Sun offers guided tours of what many believe to be the most beautiful and exciting climbing destination in the world. 

Albarracin

Bouldering in Albarracin is truly special; exceptionally good and grippy rock (sandstone with quartz), accessible and interesting problems for all grades, a large variety of boulders close together, short approaches, and a bunch of keen and super-friendly climbers around. A must visit destination for anyone who loves bouldering.
