Roped Climbing

 

We have over 2,000m2 of great climbing for you to scale, split into top rope and lead climbing walls, bouldering and the kids' Spider Castle. We think climbing is a mix of physical and mental and so we believed our climbing wall should be a work of art as well as science.  We didn't think a pre fabricated "one size fits all" wall was for us. 

We therefore set out to find someone who could design and build a wall with a modern creative flair and good old fashioned craftsmanship. A wall that would challenge the full range of climbers and yet be good on the eye. A wall that would give opportunities to those who seek them – in their climbing and their work environment. Come and try us out and see what you think.

 

Top rope climbing routes 

We have seven walls  with around 250 routes from 100+ rope lines.

Routes are graded F3 to F8a and the longest route is 13 metres.  Here's a summary of the walls' main features:
