Ropes for use as confidence ropes when walking and scrambling or for traversing glaciated terrain when walking or ski mountaineering.

These are either "Twin" or "Half" Ropes used on their own and should not be used for climbing unless paired up with a second suitable rope. They are considered safe to use for walking etc as any slip is likely to be small and on easy ground so the force on the rope will be low.

In fact, any Single, Half or Twin rope can be put to this use but usually they are a longer length than is required and Single ropes are unnecessarily heavy. On this page we list ropes that are light enough to carry for occasional use and are available in shorter lengths.
