For New Climbers

Learn to Climb Indoors

Ideal for those looking for an introduction to indoor climbing, these sessions can be either bouldering or ropes based – or both!

Sessions involving ropes usually take place at Sunderland Wall (5 minute walk from Pallion metro station), and boulder-only sessions at Eden Rock Newcastle (2 minutes from Walkergate metro).

All equipment provided.

Outdoor Bouldering Taster

If heights aren’t your thing then stay closer to the ground with an outdoor bouldering taster session! Explore one of Northumberland’s best bouldering venues with a local instructor, gaining the skills and confidence you need to become an independent boulderer.

These sessions will normally take place at Shaftoe Crags, near Bolam Lake.

All equipment provided.

Outdoor Ropes Taster

The real deal – outdoor roped climbing. Experience the thrill of climbing higher on a classic Northumbrian crag.

Tailored to your abilities, these sessions can last from 3 hours to a full day, and can include an optional abseil experience.

We use a number of venues around Northumberland for these sessions, but frequently Peel Crag near Sycamore Gap, and Kyloe Out near Lowick.

As with our other services, all equipment will be provided.
