When you book, please add names, head count and ages.
AFTER SCHOOL
Games and exercises for children (and anyone else if they don't mind mixing). Learn the basics, and develop knowledge and skills for top-rope climbing.
Under 10s should be accompanied by a parent/guardian. Extra adults can help comply with safeguarding guidelines, and minimise disruption in the event of toilet breaks.
PARTIES & GROUPS
£90+
We've hosted a few parties, Wood Green 15th Cub Scouts and a St Cuthbert's fun day for low-income families.
Currently (due to harnesses) the maximum number of climbers is 12. After some fun warm-ups and games roped climbers are managed as pairs or trios.
Expect two-four climbs per person (depending on levels of excitement!).
Food: you can arrange a cake and snacks but bear in mind this will add time, which will add to the cost of a booking. The Centres requires a £150 cleaning deposit.
2026 prices:
6 people: £90 (for 1.5 hours)
8 people: £120 (for 1.5 hours)
10-12 people: £160 (for 1.5 hours)

I had a fantastic experience with the indoor climbing instructors – it was clear they really knew what they were doing. Their positive attitude created a great atmosphere, and the session was very well structured throughout.
