Climbing and Mountaineering have seen a popularity boom in recent years and it's easy to see why. The benefits of these activities include, but are certainly not limited to:
It's a great way of helping keep both your body and mind healthy
Being part of a supportive community
The opportunity to explore the world in a new and interesting way
But obviously I am biased, so don't take just my word for it, see what the NHS has to say here NHS Benefits of climbing.
