Who is allowed to be independent?

Any experienced and competent adult, i.e., those that have registered, completed and passed the required proficiency checks, either passing a free in-house test or completing one of our climbing courses. Once registered, you can access our facilities independently, according to the proficiency test/course you passed.

One experienced adult may belay or supervise a maximum of two U18s (bouldering + roped climbing) or two adults (roped climbing only).

Under 18s (14+)

May climb independently if they have passed NICAS Level 2 or equivalent. Their climbing safety skills will be evaluated by a qualified instructor. Written parental or guardian consent must be given via the required form (ask at front desk).

Under 14s

Not permitted to climb independently or unsupervised at any time.

Day Passes

Day passes give experienced climbers access to our facilities for the day of entry. The registration fee is a once-off payment due on your first visit as an independent climber, it does not apply to instructor-led sessions or courses (e.g., Taster Sessions or Inductions).
