Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!

Explorers Climber Activity Badge

Season:Scouting

Brand:Scout Store

Code:E-Act-Climber

Supported by a friend, chalk covered fingers, your foot reaches the ridge. This is how you climb to the top.

Complete your Climber badge:

  1. Take part in at least two sessions of climbing, indoor or out, while completing this badge.

    Make sure your session is supervised by an an appropriately qualified person.

  2. Complete 3 Activities. You Could:
    1. Discover - Find out about the history of Climbing in the UK.
      Consider how the sport, equipment and access has evolved over the years.
    2. Experience - Take part in two different types of climbing and find out about how these climbs are graded and recorded.
      This could be bouldering, an indoor climbing wall or climbing outside – they all have different grading systems, and different ways of recording the climbs!
    3. Mobilise - Consider accessibility within climbing - how it could be more accessible and encourage more people into the sport.
      You could help on a session for another section, or work with your local bouldering gym to improve access for visually impaired climbers.
    4. Solve - Look at different safety equipment, discover and discuss how we use it and what each item does.
      Work out why equipment does not work when it’s not used properly - then demonstrate what to look out for to ensure it is safe.
    5. Create - Create a guidebook entry for a climb you’ve done.
      Consider the information other climbers would need, and any information you think is important to include.

Tips

  • Make it your own

    Do you want to learn more about Orology (the study of mountains) or just want to find out about a new sport.


    Think outside the box, but remember to keep safe and use the correct gear.

    To earn your badge, you can either try some of our example activities, or come up with your own with support from a Scouts volunteer or trusted adult. The activities should be challenging for you and take a reasonable amount of time.

  • Guidance for Leaders

    Offer flexibility and encourage Explorers to tailor their badge to their interests and skill set.


    Everyone has different skills and experiences, so try to consider their starting point when choosing what they will achieve.


    As a rough guide, an Activity Badge should be achievable within 3 weeks of activities.
