The first-level school will give you the basic knowledge of rock climbing technique. This knowledge and these skills are directly related to the actions of participants in mountain summit programs on various rock routes.
The first-level program of the rock climbing school in Denyshi is designed:
The second-level program of the rock climbing school. Its task is to review the knowledge and skills already gained by participants who have climbing experience and have completed the first (basic) level. At this level, we will practice full teamwork in a rope team with a change of leader, and organizing anchor stations at 3 or more points. We recommend it for those who plan challenging technical ascents in the future with Kuluar team leaders, such as the Matterhorn ascent, where the team leader handles the technical aspects, and you need to have basic knowledge of how everything works to minimize risks.
The main instructor of the program is Vyacheslav Polezhaiko, one of the most experienced high-altitude climbers in Ukraine. As part of a team, he made the first-ever ascent of the southeast ridge of Annapurna III.
Learn from the best and go to the mountains safely!
A maximally intensive program in an intensive format. Get ready to absorb a lot of information and put it into practice
For quality training, we take no more than 5 participants per team leader in the first-level school. The maximum group size is 10 participants, worked with by 2 team leaders. Or 3 participants per team leader in the second-level school, 6 participants per two team leaders.
We save time for what matters most - learning. Also, in case of rain, a hotel is much more comfortable than tents.
Exciting stories from our team leaders about the most challenging climbs serve as a vivid illustration of the importance of the knowledge gained

As of early 2023, 25,000 participants have already gone through KULUAR, 97.8% of whom were satisfied.
On the first day we check into the hotel, where we cover the basics of rock climbing and study the theoretical base so as not to waste time on the rocks tomorrow.
We will learn what friends and camalots, jumars and "figure eight" devices are. We will discuss how, which, and when it's best to use protection equipment. We'll have a lecture on the physical basics of setting up anchor points and stations, as well as different types of belaying. We'll have dinner at one of the nearby restaurants.
We reinforce theoretical knowledge with practice. We wake up in the morning, have breakfast, and are the first to head out to the rocks in Denyshi. A day full of practice awaits us.
Today's program includes:
The second level school adds repetition of the first level and practicing full teamwork with lead switching, setting up stations with 3 or more points, plus analyzing situations that may arise, for example, in programs such as climbing the Matterhorn.
We train until the evening, after which we discuss questions and theoretical material at the hotel.
Early rise and departure. We will consolidate the knowledge gained yesterday and work independently on the rocks. We'll start with setting up points and organizing stations. The result of the training will be completing rock routes on your own points in teams with leader rotation.
The team leader observes from the side and gives hints, but you must complete the route on your own.
We finish working on the rocks at 16:00, return to Zhytomyr, and head home.
Depending on weather conditions and the group's level, the team leader may make changes to the program.
We stay in a comfortable hotel in Zhytomyr. Meals are not included in the program cost. We'll prepare breakfast at the hotel, as the departure is early. Lunch is a snack, purchased in advance. Dinner is at a restaurant.
General group gathering at a hotel in the city of Zhytomyr. We'll collect information in advance about who is traveling and how, so we can optimize the travel process. Most often, participants travel from Kyiv by car, and after coordinating with them, we can match drivers with passengers.
4-7 days before the start, the program coordinator will provide detailed information about the meeting with the team leader.
Meals are not included in the price. Therefore, you need to provide your own usual snacks or arrange a group purchase of food in the group chat.
Each participant needs two breakfasts (freeze-dried meals or other quality food), three lunches (snacks), two dinners (restaurant).
To confirm participation in the program, you need to make a prepayment of 2000 UAH. Terms of prepayment refund here.
In case of early termination of the program on your own initiative, the money is non-refundable.
