Climbing for Kids at Dublin Climbing Centre

Kids are natural climbers, we just add the ropes! From age 6, children can start to climb at Dublin Climbing Centre in Tallaght with our qualified instructors, from a first try on the wall to later achieving certified NICAS courses, or birthday parties, holiday camps, and competitive youth training.
