Perfect climbing course with amazing people

Our small group was a great team. Our guides (2 days with Gabriel and 1 day with Marco) were very competent and made us feel safe at all times. They responded perfectly to our climbing levels and everyone had a lot of fun. We were always driven to the spots. We would definitely recommend it.

Hervorragender Grundlagenkurs im Felsklettern

Als begeisterte Indoor-Boulderer wollten wir in Arco endlich auch das Klettern am Fels kennenlernen. Wir würden es jederzeit wieder mit dem Team von 'Mmove into Nature" machen! Wir haben hier eine umfassende Einweisung in die Grundlagen des Kletterns mit vielen Profi-Tipps erhalten. An drei aufeinander folgenden Vormittagen wurden uns verschiedene Sicherungstechniken und die Grundlagen des Felsenkletterns vermittelt (Toprope und Vorstieg). Das Material konnten wir vor Ort ausleihen und war in einem Top-Zustand. Wir waren in einer kleinen 3er-Gruppe unterwegs, sodass jeder ausreichend Zeit hatte, abwechselnd am Erfahrfung am Fels oder beim Sichern zu sammeln. Unser Guide (Andrea) war super – ein absoluter Profi und erfahrener Kletterer bzw. Outdoor-Guide. Er hat uns zu Höchstleistungen motiviert, ist dabei sehr gut auf individuelle Erfahrungs-/Fitnesslevel und Bedürfnisse eingegangen. Er hat es geschafft, die Theorie und Technik unterhaltsam zu vermitteln und alle bei bester Laune zu halten. Wir waren an drei verschiedenen Kletterwänden unterwegs, die für Einsteiger total perfekt waren. An zwei Tagen waren wir dort sogar die einzigen, was rund um Arco eine Seltenheit ist – also echte Geheimtipps. Der Kurs hat ein absolut faires Preis-Leistungsverhältnis. Wir haben viel gerlernt und erlebt. Ein tolles Erlebnis, uneingeschränkt empfehlenswert.

Fabulous fun in the Sarca Valley!

For a first time climber I don’t think I could have had a greater experience. Booking the course from home in Sweden was easy, and when it needed to be altered communication through WhatsApp was fast and pleasant. The day before the course I completed two hard via ferratas, and if not for them I would maybe have been able to scale one wore wall; but then again - nothing is perfect, but this time it was just me.
