Terms explained –

*Bouldering – Bouldering is rock climbing stripped down to its raw essentials. Leaving behind ropes and harnesses and just using climbing shoes and a bag of chalk over safety mats, your challenge is to climb short but tricky. You don’t need experience or an expensive kit to have a go making it really easy to get into if you’ve never tried it before.

*Stargazing – Stargazing is the act of observing stars, moons, constellations, galaxies and other objects in space in the night sky. This is usually done by enthusiasts, scientists, astrologers, science freaks and people who are emotionally missing a person to study the arrangement of planets, and stars or connect spiritually to outer space.
