Saturday afternoon at Summit Up climbing centre Oldham - Experienced climbers only

Indoor climbing and bouldering at Summit Up, Oldham

Summit up is a brand new climbing centre in Oldham with a great selection of top rope, lead routes and even a pair of speed climbing walls (same route as the Olympics!). The vague plan is to do an hour or so of roped climbing then explore the bouldering area.

To come along, please register with the climbing centre here (saves time on the day). You will need to pay an entry fee directly to the climbing centre when you arrive and complete the centre's short skills assessment if you haven't been here before. We'd ask that all members sign up through the event page to make sure the event leader has all information of the members attending.
 

The walls are 16m tall so if you are planning on bringing a rope, make sure its 40m+ (no 30m ropes!)

I'm new to Climbing - can I come along? Sorry this event is for experienced climbers only, but please come along to our beginner-friendly climbing events (Mondays at Parthian, Manchester, Alternate Thursdays at Awesome Walls Stockport)

You must be able to answer YES to all these questions

1. Can you fit a climbing harness correctly?
2. Can you tie in to a rope using the correct knots?
3. Can you belay another climber correctly and confidently?

Any questions, please message the leader.
