Rock climbing is a very challenging yet very rewarding activity - earning you a great view at the end of your climb, and making you appreciate it all the more. Rock climbing is normally (and is recommended to be) done in pairs or as a group so that rescue can be done, should an accident occur. When rock climbing, make sure that you have your travel insurance with you.
Rock climbing is usually done for recreational purposes, but it is also practiced as a sport. Rock climbing requires strength, training, endurance, and mental control. It is a tough and dangerous physical activity, so know-how and training before actual rock climbing is a must. The proper safety equipment, gear, and apparel are also essential for a safe and enjoyable ride.
Rock climbing has become a popular activity but it has a number of potential risks and dangers. The risk also increases in direct proportion to the skill level; the higher the level, the more hours are needed for training and performing harder tasks. The sport poses inherent risks to the fingers, wrist, elbows, and shoulders, because most of the climber's weight rests upon these areas. Excessive weight-bearing demands can lead to trauma to the upper limbs.
Rock climbing is considered a Grade 4 risk sport with a high chance for injury. It is highly recommended that you obtain travel insurance before engaging in this activity.
