A quick confidence boost to get you safely back on the wall.

Had a break from climbing? Whether life got busy or other priorities took over, this session is designed to help competent rope climbers refresh key skills like tying in and belaying. It’s a chance to rebuild confidence, ask questions and make sure you're climbing safely – so you can get back to enjoying your sessions and keeping your partner safe.

This course is for people who already know how to climb with ropes but need a refresher.

Please note: bookings must be made in pairs - we can not refresh a belayer who does not have a climbing partner!
After the session, your instructor may recommend further training if needed.

Looking for a fun, easy way to try climbing? Our taster sessions are the perfect introduction – whether you're after a one-off adventure or curious about taking it further.

Climbing is a social, active and creative sport that’s surprisingly easy to get into – making it a fantastic way to stay fit. These 'have-a-go' sessions let you try bouldering, roped climbing and auto belays.

Session length may vary depending if you book an adult, family or kids-only taster. Check calendar for availability.

By the end of the session, you’ll be ready to visit the centre as a boulderer and auto belay user. (Children will still need supervision). If you'd like to keep climbing on the ropes, our Beginners' Courses are the perfect next step.
