At Capricorn we believe the best way to learn is to
spend as much time out ‘doing’ with safe client centred learning at the
heart of what we do. We can
give you a tailor made mountaineering experience whether its gill
scrambling, ridge walking, single pitch climbing, multi pitch climbing,
rock scrambling or navigating across the Cairngorm plateau.
So if you fancy trying something new or just
refresh and hone your skills then contact one of our team.

Handled ascenders for fixed ropes, rescue
and protection with a fixed rope. The ergonomic grip is ideal for
gloved hands and insulates the handle in cold conditions. The
Ascension has a self-cleaning cam design holds well even on muddy
and icy ropes.

A Caving ascender designed for chest mounting, the
Croll mounts between sit harness and chest strap, lying flat
against the chest. It is ideal for use with any single rope ascent
system. Unlike the Basic, this clamp is not designed as protection
with fixed rope.

The Ropeman is a unique design, without doubt the
smallest, lightest and most affordable full-functioning ascender.
The Ropeman MKII is based on the Ropeman but a much tougher
cookie! Still lightweight and compact it can deal with a broader
range of rope diameters. Replaces the ridges of MKI with Pins that
reduces the weight but also rope wear.

helmet that is easy to adjust with no fiddly buckles or knots.

size even over headgear for winter climbing by two wheels that
adjust the cradle size.

The classic helmet with an optimal price/performance
ratio. A helmet for Climbing centres and for those on a budget.

We have all been there. One moment we are reaching
for that perfect hold but without even realising we are flying
through space. For rock climbers who are pushing their limits and
require the strength and higher fall factor available with a
10.5mm rope, the Calanques is the choice. The Calanques has all
the features that you have come to expect from Edelweiss including
the supereverdry and perdur treatments. The Calanques excels in
alpine environments as well as sport, indoor and big wall
situations. For those practicing the double rope system, the
Calanques is also available in an 8.5mm diameter. CE certified.
