Our mission: Climbing is a playful, enriching activity for children of all ages, and we want to help the next generation of climbers discover the sport in a safe and friendly environment!

  • Children aged 11 & younger need to be under direct adult supervision at all times (maximum 1 adult to 2 kids) when climbing in our centres.

    Parent-led sessions (ages 1-12) - Drop-in, no booking needed

    Monday - Friday 10:00am - 5:30pm + Weekends 9am - 4pm at Surrey Quays (Canada Water Tube).

    No entry charge for non-climbing parents, but you do have to look after your children at all times. Please note, no Under 12’s are allowed on the mats outside of these times.

    Weekends 9 — 11 am at Acton (Acton Town Tube), North (Burnt Oak Tube) - No entry charge for non-climbing parents, but you do have to look after your children at all times.

    The adult can be either:

    • a non-climbing parent for free during ‘parent-led sessions’. These sessions times are:

    • an adult climber also paying their own entrance fee at any other times

    • an Instructor during scheduled ‘After-School Club’ lessons or private lessons

    If you would like to bring an 11 year old or younger to climb, please fill out two online registration forms - one in your child’s name (we’ll need an adult to sign it!), as well as one in your own name.

    To fill out the forms, please visit our online registration page here.

  • Bigger kids 12 years old and over can climb unsupervised in our centres at any time, or join an Intro Lesson.

    A parent or guardian has to fill out a parental consent form and an online registration form for the young person. The young person needs to watch the Safety Intro video along with their parent/guardian, as they’ll be asked a few questions about it on their first visit so that we can make sure everyone is happy & safe.

    To see the options and fill out the forms, please visit the ‘first time’ page here

key points

  • NEW UNDER 12’s PARENT-LED SYSTEM FOR SURREY QUAYS - please see below

  • Building One (Bermondsey Tube) does not have any kid’s areas or climbing routes for kids, but our other centres - North (Burnt Oak Tube), Acton (Acton Central Tube) & Surrey Quays (Canada Water Tube) do have kids areas and climbing routes for kids.

  • Climbing centres are not soft play zones, and can be really dangerous for everyone if people don’t behave safely. If some of our entrance policies seem a little bit strict, please remember that we are only trying to keep everyone safe!

  • We have ‘parent-led sessions’ which are totally free of charge for non climbing parents. If a parent and child visit outside of these times, there is a normal entry fee for the parent as well (for everyone’s safety we want to encourage parents with kids to visit during session times)

  • Please take a few minutes to register yourself and any children online here before you arrive to save time! Please note you’ll need to fill out one registration form in your own name as well.
