We welcome all climbers whatever your level and experience. Whether you want to push your limits, improve your technique and fitness or just relax with friends, our centre has something for you. We run regular courses and tasters, or you can Pay & Play for as long as you like during regular opening times.
If you can demonstrate to a member of staff you are a safe and responsible climber including recognised belay practices, knot tying and understanding of equipment/environment - then great stuff, we are more than happy for you to enjoy all that the climbing centre has to offer.
All Climbers must register at reception before a session and a staff member will guide newcomers through how to make the most of the centre and any safety points needed. Climbers can come along for a session anytime and climb unlimited on a day ticket.
We have a range of hire shoes, harnesses, belay devices and helmets you can hire and chalk balls are available from reception. Competent climbers can supervise up to 2 novice/child climbers at a time - just ask reception for a form!
