Our mountaineering courses are primarily run in the Lake District; caving courses in the Yorkshire Dales, the Peak District or the Vercors in France and ice climbing/winter mountaineering courses/guiding are run in Scotland and the Lake District. However rock climbing courses also take place in the Peak District and Wales and guiding can take place anywhere in the UK and also overseas.
Our range of courses caters for the complete novice, those wishing to gain more experience and experienced climbers, walkers and cavers wishing to  learn more advanced skills, improve performance, or visit new areas.
Besides skills courses Ascent Training has an AALS license and we deliver programmes for schools and youth groups. We regularly base ourselves at Holly How YHA in Coniston which is an excellent base for our outdoor education courses, multi activity courses and more specialist educational courses such as GCSE PE courses.
