Learn to handle unexpected situations on the wall and climb with confidence.
Our Self-Rescue Course teaches you the essential techniques to respond safely and efficiently to incidents while climbing. Through practical, hands-on exercises on real rock, you’ll gain the knowledge and calm needed to act effectively in any situation.
Throughout the course, you’ll practice key maneuvers and rescue systems to manage emergencies in a safe and controlled way:
- Rope ascension and descent techniques.
- Changing systems and load transfers.
- Partner hauling and lowering.
- Rescue maneuvers while abseiling.
- Real-world scenarios and problem-solving on the wall.
- Belay using a GriGri and a Reverso.
- Rappel independently.
If you meet these requirements, you’re ready to take your climbing skills to the next level!
The course takes place in La Mussara (Tarragona, Spain) — one of the most scenic and technical climbing areas in Catalonia.
You can join a group session on scheduled dates listed on our website or choose a private course, tailored to your needs and learning pace.
By the end of the course, you’ll have the confidence and technical ability to act autonomously and safely in case of an emergency during your climbs — whether on sport routes or multi-pitch terrain.
At Southclimb, you’ll learn from certified, experienced climbing guides who combine technical precision with a fun, motivating approach. We believe in learning through real experience, so you’ll finish the course not only better prepared — but also more inspired to climb.

(Translated by Google) Santi and the entire team of professionals who work with him are incredible... if I had to choose one word it would be EXCELLENCE. transmits so much security, that you only receive fun and learning. He is warm, human, ready to solve any unforeseen event. Start the day with a guide and end with a friend. He also advises you before the activity, and also after... You can write to him a month later and he will help you buy a harness, or he will give you a discount on climbing shoes. Is incredible. He is very passionate, you can see that despite the 25 years he has been dedicating himself to this, he still has that spark, that enthusiasm, and he transmits it. I honestly recommend it.
(Original) Santi y todo el equipo de profesionales que trabajan con él son increíbles... si tuviera que elegir una palabra sería EXCELENCIA. transmite tanta seguridad, que tu solo recibes diversión y aprendizaje. Es cálido, humano, listo para solucionar cualquier imprevisto. Empieza el día teniendo un guía y terminas teniendo un amigo. Además te asesora antes de la actividad, y también después... Puedes escribirle un mes mas tarde y te ayudará a comprar un arnés, o te dará un descuento en pies de gatos. Es increíble. Es muy apasionado, se ve que a pesar de los 25 años que lleva dedicándose a esto, sigue teniendo esa chispa, ese entusiasmo, y lo transmite. Sinceramente, lo recomiendo.

(Original) Buenísimo con Sol, encantadora experiencia
First of all, I want to thank Santi - our rock climbing guide - for an excellent teaching!!⚡️
He was consistent, attentive to our strengths and weaknesses, inspiring confidence and really professional (technically and psychologically)!
I finally overcome my fear of lead rope climbing which followed me for a long long time… A friend of mine had his first time real rock climbing and now he already knows both types (lead and top) of climbing and belaying!🤯
And it hasn't felt like a boring studying with a tired of all this annoying tourists instructor. Santi was behaving not just as a mentor, but also as a friend of us🤝🏻
Hope to climb together one day again✨🏔️
