TYPES OF CLIMBING

There are different types of climbings, the most basics are: Ice climbing, dry-tooling, mountaineering, solo climbing, hill walking and scrambling are also all under the umbrella of "climbing".

Rock climbing is the most commun, and from it we can get two different types of climbings,  which are Free climbing  and Aid Climbing. From the Aid one we don't get anyone but inside the Free one yes, the Roped and the Unroped. In Unroped we get Free Soloring and Boultering, and from Roped, Lead Climbing and Top Rope. Finally, inside the Lead one we find Trad Climbing and the Sport Climbing.

Some people love climbing but are afraid of falling. For those people, the solution has been to do indoor climbing. Within these there are two options: with harness or without harness. If you have a harness, the walls will be higher and the harness will protect you, plus you will have a mat below to prevent any injury. In the ones without harness, the walls are usually lower but a bit more complicated. Below, to avoid hurting yourself when you fall, you have some kind of giant mats that protect you. A part from this, if you really like this ideas, you can start doing competitions.
