Midweek Rock Climbing
Join our midweek climbing crew for a variety of local climbing opportunities year-round. Whether you're up for a quick indoor session post-work or eager to hit the hills for some outdoor rock action, we've got you covered.
Register below to receive weekly WhatsApp messages detailing session specifics like time, location, and organisers. Plus, you can use the group to plan your own climbing adventures anytime, including weekend trips.
We're always looking for more people to get involved in running sessions. You don't need to be an instructor or a guide, just someone with a passion for bringing people together and some knowledge of local crags. Organisers do not provide any guiding or instruction and individuals within the group are responsible for their own safety whilst taking part in climbing activities. If you're keen to get involved or have any questions please email Jonno.
We do have a few safety rules for joining one of our sessions:
Helmets are compulsory while climbing and belaying.
If abseiling, use a prusik as a backup and tie a knot in the end of the rope
Use clear commands and discuss the plan before the climber leaves the ground
If in doubt, ask questions
Speak up if you see something you aren't sure or happy about
Be safe and have fun!
