Reading Indoor Bouldering - All Abilities Welcome!
6 people attending
0 places left
Bouldering is a form of climbing that doesn't involve ropes and focuses on "solving" short climbing problems using strength, technique, and problem solving skills.
The only equipment you need is a pair of climbing shoes and if you've never climbed before, bouldering provides an amazing opportunity to get introduced to the sport of climbing and see what all the fuss is about!
This event is open to all ability levels and if you have never climbed before, I will provide direct assistance, helping to build your confidence and technique as best I can, whilst also helping you to boulder safely.
If you're an experienced boulderer and would like to climb independently, you will of course need to abide by the centre's terms and conditions and are fully responsible for your own safety.
This will take place at the Climbing Hangar in Reading.
If you have never climbed at the Climbing Hangar in Reading before, you must book an induction slot:
- https://www.theclimbinghangar.com/locations/reading - follow instructions to book induction slot.
- I would recommend booking the induction just before or slightly after the event start time (which is 10am).
IMPORTANT! - Participation Statement
You MUST complete a Participation Statement, in addition to booking your event space before attending an OutdoorLads event. You only need to complete this Participation Statement once, not for each event you attend.


What to bring
The only specialist bit of equipment you need are climbing shoes. If you don't own a pair, you can hire these from the bouldering centre.
Wear appropriate sports clothes:
- Shorts/tracksuits that are flexible and allow a range of comfortable movement.
-
Jewellery or accessories such as rings, watches, chains or bangles should be removed before beginning the session to prevent injury.
Food & drink
Bring a bottle of water - a water fountain is available to refill your bottle. Alternatively, you can pick up snacks and drinks from the cafe at the centre.
