Enjoy the thrills of climbing for fun and fitness in the Illawarra's only purpose built indoor rock and boulder climbing gym. A great place for birthday parties, social groups, corporate groups and others to do something a bit different and a great alternative to weights or aerobics for those wanting a challenging work out.
Indoor rock climbing is a great way to introduce total beginners of all ages to the thrills of climbing in a controlled environment. We can teach you how to belay (hold and control the rope) for your partner safely in a few minutes at the beginning of your first visit. Please note that children under 12 are not allowed to belay and therefore must be accompanied by an adult to climb. The introductory lesson is free with your entry charge. Once you are competent at belaying you can climb or attempt to climb any of the many different routes in the gym.
We have over a 100 different climbs on 40 ropes so there is always a great range of climbs from easy to extremely challenging.
No time limits! We charge you for entry and any gear hire but after that stay for as long as you like. Want to leave and come back? No problem, providing you come back the same day as there is no further charge!
Want to improve your skills? We run coaching sessions for juniors and adults check out the News page for times and dates. Juniors train from 4pm till 6pm and adult training starts at 6pm. From time to time we have some of Australia's best climbers running the coaching sessions – keep your eye on our News page for details.
We have a wide range of climbing gear available from Beal, Five Ten, Red Chili, Edelrid, Petzl and many other innovative companies at great prices in our Gear Shop. If we don't have what you need we can get it in for you. The more you buy the better the deal we offer! See our starting point for pricing on the Gear Shop page.
