I can only look on in awe at this venturesome sport; and envy - that we never had awesome facilities like this when we were growing up. So, if you're looking for an adrenaline rush with a daredevil sport that will give you a total body workout, why not let the wall move you and get down to in Warana….I might just meet you there!

Belaying* refers to a variety of techniques climbers use to exert tension on a climbing rope so that a falling climber does not fall very far. A climbing partner typically applies tension at the other end of the rope whenever the climber is not moving and removes the tension from the rope whenever the climber needs more rope to continue climbing - thanks to Wikipedia for the definition of 'belaying'.
