Fri., January 16 | Ice Climbing Taster Day for Beginners | Bernese Oberland
Ice climbing begins with curiosity and the desire to experience something new. At the Chixxs Ice Climbing Taster Day, you have the opportunity to do just that. Together with Chixxs on Board and mountain guide Sigi, you'll spend a day in the Bernese Oberland learning how to move safely on the ice.
This taster course is aimed at women who want to get to know ice climbing without any prior experience on ice. You only need climbing and belaying experience from indoor climbing gyms. Using crampons and ice tools, you'll gain your first top-rope experience and learn the most important basics of crampon and ice axe techniques.
The focus is on trust, enjoyment, and the shared experience. You'll feel how much calm and power lies within the frozen wall and how courage feels as it slowly grows. Perhaps you'll stick with it. Perhaps this is just the beginning of your journey into the ice.
