INCLUDED IN THE FEEÂ
Certified Rock Climbing Instructor for the whole day and necesary gear for the activity.
Max Participants: 6
TRANSPORTATIONÂ
You need to reach the start location with your own car.
If you don't have a car, there will always be people joining from Dubai or Abu Dhabi and they can car pool you.
WHAT TO BRING
You will need to bring lunch, snacks, water, drinks, etc for the day. You should also dress appropriately for being outdoors whether you prefer long sleeve, short sleeve shirts, shorts/pants, is your own preference but definitely have a jacket and maybe wool hat and gloves in case it gets cold or rains.Â
We still will climb if cold and even if rain is not too much. Also bring appropriate sun protection, i.e. sunscreen, lip balm, sun hat, sunglasses.
You should have sturdy shoes for walking in the wadi to the crag but you may want sandals or flip flops while hanging around at the crag in between climbs. I also recommend to bring a camping chair so you can sit and relax when not climbing or belaying.
If you have climbing shoes, harness, helmet please bring them. If you don't have climbing shoes then plan to wear solid sneakers or hiking shoes. weak/flimsy shoes will be no good and neither will big, bulky hiking boots. If you don't have a harness or helmet I will have extras on hand. All other gear and equipment will be provided.
There is no toilette at the site, therefore make sure you make a stop before arriving to the event.
