New Eco Freindly Climbing Courses

Sept. 3, 2010 - PRLog -- Rock climbing courses on the Kent/Sussex border can now be done in a environmentally friendly way. Each courses is run so the carbon footprint is kept to a minimum.

A major part of rock climbing is about being outside within our beautiful countryside. Many climbers try there best the keep the cliffs and crags clean of rubbish and even cut back invasive plant species that can damage our eco-system.

The new Mountain-Trips course has tried to reduce the amount of environmental impact by reducing its carbon footprint. Car pollution is one of the biggest causes of carbon dioxide been released into the atmosphere and is also one of the easiest to combat. The Mountain-Trips instructor will walk to Eridge Train station (easy connection to London Bridge) where he can meet the clients for the day. From here the clients are taken for a short walk to Harrisons rocks and spend the day climbing with a qualified mountaineering and rock climbing instructor. Climbing in its self has a very low environmental impact and even efforts are made to reduce the erosion on the rock as people climb to the top.  At the end of the day the, everyone will be guided back to Eridge Station to make their way home (by foot or train).

When booking this rock climbing course no paper work is sent out unless you request it.  Visit http://www.mountain-trips.co.uk/ for more details.
