Abseiling is an exciting activity that involves descending from a steep slope. It is a popular choice for adventure enthusiasts, but it can also be done at specialised facilities.
Abseiling is essentially the opposite of climbing. While rock climbing involves ascending a near-vertical face using a rope, abseiling involves descending a similar vertical surface with the help of a rope. In the UK, we refer to this activity as abseiling, but in Europe and the US, it is commonly known as rappelling, derived from the French word "rappeler."
In simple terms, abseiling can be described as controlled falling. While that may not sound appealing, it’s important to understand that it is a method of descending safely, whether you are coming down a rock face you have climbed or a skyscraper where you are cleaning windows. It offers a fast, controlled, and relatively safe way to lower yourself down
