Common Injuries
Abseiling accidents and injuries can be severe, depending on where you are and the level you are involved in this activity. If you are a Beginner, you should always ensure a Qualified Instructor is with you.
Finger Injuries
These are the most common injuries because your fingers are in continued contact with rocks and rough surfaces.
Knuckles Stress Fractures
Another hand injury is caused by constant hand use while climbing; if the pain is more than you can take, rest.
Tendonitis
You may experience aching elbows and shoulders; rest or do stretching exercises again.
Avalanche Warnings
If you are Abseiling down a mountain during the Winter Season, you must be aware of the risk of Avalanches to prevent a severe or fatal injury.
Prior knowledge of the warning signs of an Avalanche could help you avoid serious injury and keep you safe.
These warnings can differ depending on which country you are abseiling in. For example, the avalanche warnings in Europe have been graded differently than in the USA.
Pre-Existing Medical Conditions
If you have been Abseiling before and may have had an injury or accident whilst taking part in Abseiling, you must declare this when purchasing a policy.
We have several providers who can offer travel insurance, including Abseiling and if you have a pre-existing medical condition.
