Why do you need Scrambling Insurance?
Scrambling is considered a high risk activity, which is commonly done without the use of ropes or other protective climbing equipment.
Scrambling can be a hazardous activity due to uncertainty of weather and the unpredictability of the rock face and surface. It is always possible to mistakenly go off route and venture onto more serious terrain.
Ensuring that you have proper protection in place to cover yourself against accident or injuries that could possibly occur is highly advised.
