General information

This evening is part of the Alpine Academy of ESAC.

Entry requirements have been set for participating in a C1 and C2 course and these are assessed on the classification day on 21 March in Amsterdam. Various techniques, climbing level and condition are tested on this day. To prepare the students for this and to ensure that they have the required knowledge, we organize this rope technique evening on behalf of the AlpCie. Are you just interested but not taking a course? Feel free to come by!
