The Introductory Abseiling Course provides the knowledge to set up emergency and fixed-anchor abseils—skills that apply directly to via ferratas, canyoning, rock climbing, and alpinism. Participants will learn to execute the manoeuvre with complete safety, understand the correct security protocol, and recognise the most common mistakes—since abseiling accounts for the majority of mountain-activity accidents. Key topics: risk management · different abseil methods · blocking techniques · anchor rigging · safety protocols · equipment management · improvised/emergency anchors. Course structure (2 days): Day 1 covers a content overview, equipment briefing, and Q&A, followed by a practical session working through all course objectives: rigging anchors, emergency methods, and abseil techniques. Day 2 consolidates everything from the previous day, with participants rigging and abseiling independently, closing with a group debrief.
