Rock Climbing is a sport fast gaining popularity in Singapore. By the term Rock Climbing, we refer to Rock and Wall climbing. Many climbing walls have sprung up in the last few years. These walls mainly reside in educational institutions and SAFRA clubhouses. The sport has also taken a competitive image with several competitions held every year. This site also takes a peek into Rock climbing in the World and Singapore's very own Everest Expedition.

Rock Climbing in Singapore

An estimation in 1994 put the number of Rock climbers in Singapore to be about 10,000. As the sport is introduced into schools, this number has definitely grown in the last 3 years. A common misconception about the sport is that it involves danger to life and limb. It may be hard to believe, but Rock Climbing is one of the safest sports around. It does not just involve physical strength. Many people people think mistakenly that Rock Climbing is as dangerous as mountaineering. But the risks involved are actually minimal as a safety rope is attached to the Rock Climber at all times. Explore what this site tells you about the Sport In Singapore.
