Lacking ideas? Have you ever thought about having a stag do climbing? Stag dos lend themselves to almost everything, so there’s no reason to complain that every time someone is going to get married you end up doing the same thing. This time we bring you a great idea to spend the afternoon, which can fit in with the activities of a weekend if you’re not satisfied with celebrating the stag do for just one day. How about going climbing?
Climbing in natural settings
If you are in shape and enjoy the outdoors, you can organize a getaway to climb a rock face. Some stag dos in Barcelona with rural excursions do this in the morning, and dedicate the afternoon to other things, such as taking a walk in the forest or having a good barbecue. The possibilities are many and varied, so you can engage in several at once. It’s just a matter of managing your time well and having a clear plan for the course of action.
Normally, you should have someone experienced to guide us during the activity, especially if it’s your first time or you haven’t climbed much. The equipment will be provided by the monitors, who will also indicate the correct way to use it, depending on the type of climbing you are going to do.
Indoor climbing for city climbers
If going to the countryside is not your thing, there’s also a formula that allows you to celebrate the stag do by climbing. Many cities have indoor climbing walls, sports facilities where you can climb mimicking vertical walls, although usually smaller than these. They are perfect for someone who is eager to learn to climb and have fun. And it’s a great way to celebrate someone’s stag do in a dynamic way, doing sports without leaving the city.
Other activities can also be scheduled here. For instance, a treasure hunt with various types of challenges, which starts or ends with a climb on the indoor climbing wall, is a cool way to turn traditional stag dos upside down. Afterwards, if you want, you can take a shower and hit the town, go out for dinner, or whatever you fancy.
Climbing for stag dos
If you like adventure activities for stag dos, but there’s no time to organise and go out, an afternoon at the climbing wall can be a good way to set up the party in the city. You just need to know the places where these types of facilities are, which are usually in sports centres, although there are also some in shopping centres.
It may seem like a simple proposal, but it’s another way to celebrate stag dos. Everyone can participate, as climbing is relatively easy and you don’t need to be in exceptional physical shape. With a good harness and proper instructions, there’s no one who can’t enjoy climbing. The worst that can happen is that someone ends up hanging, but there are those who are hanging all day, even when touching the ground.
So now you know, if you need a stag do with climbing or another risky activity, this is your place.
