Road Trips - Expanding Horizons

Evolution is not just about climbing indoors or on Southern Sandstone. Each year we run trips to many different areas in the UK covering every different rock type. Our road trips are suitable for climbers of all abilities. These trips are very flexible to suit everyone's individual needs. We will have an instructor in the chosen climbing area fully equipped and ready to pass on their extensive knowledge. All you have to do is meet them at the crag at 10am and spend the day enjoying some fantastic climbing. This enables you to be totally independent, climbing for as many days as your budget/stamina allows. Alternatively you can travel with us in our 15 seat bus and stay on the same campsite as us. Either way you will have a great time, learn loads and visit some spectacular countryside. Tuition on UK based trips takes place on Saturdays and Sundays from 10am – 3pm. For clients wishing to travel with us then the bus leaves Evolution Indoor Climbing at 6pm on Friday and returns for 10pm on Sunday. Our fantastic French bouldering trips leave Evolution Indoor Climbing at 6pm on Friday and return on 10pm on Monday.
