Do I need an induction?
If you've never climbed before you'll need to come to come to an induction session (even if you're in the company of experts).
If you're bringing the kids but don't intend to climb yourself, you'll still need to come to an induction to ensure you understand the dangers in the wall and how to keep your little ones safe. Again, booking in advance is best.
If you, or a member of your group, has never been to The Climbing Hangar you’ll need to choose the “First Climb” option, so we can show you around. If you've climbed a few times you'll be asked some questions about your experience when you arrive. It doesn’t matter if you’re a newbie or worldie, but you’ll get a tailor-made induction based on your climbing ability and then you’re free to climb for as long as you like.
What equipment do I need?
You don’t need to bring anything with you except your enthusiasm and some comfortable clothes.
Free shoe hire is included in your entry, or grab some pro shoes at just £3.
How fit and strong do I need to be?
You don’t need to be fit or super strong to start climbing. You’ll find climbs (we call them problems) you can do on your first visit, and the more you practice the stronger you’ll become! Just make sure you warm up before you start to minimise the risk of injury, and then you'll be on your way.
