4 people attending
2 places left
This event is for members of all levels of experience and ability.
This centre is mostly a bouldering wall where climbers attempt various problems near the ground without the use of a rope. There is also 250 square metres of roped climbing.
Indoor climbing centres offer the challenges of climbing that you’ll find on natural outdoor structures-simply indoors. Its a fun way to stay fit, you will quickly begin to develop arm, back, finger, and core strength as a result of the many reaches and holds that are repeated through the completion of the climb.
To come along, you will need to register via the event page, and to climb you will need to pay an entry fee directly to the centre when you arrive. For entry fee prices at the centre go to:www.theclimbingunit.com/the-unit/opening-times-prices/
It is important that all members sign up through the event page to make sure the event leader has all information of the members attending.
