"A lot more fun than lifting up heavy objects and putting them down again!"
Located in Northbridge, Rockface is open 7 days a week and welcomes experienced climbers and first timers from all walks of life. Indoor rock climbing is a safe, exciting, all-over body workout for ages 5 to 85! And hey, it's way cooler than lifting weights or running laps.
Can I come climbing on my own?
You can come to the gym on your own, but you can't climb the walls without a partner; it’s best to bring a friend. Having said that, there are often others in the gym also looking for a climbing partner. Alternatively, why not use our forum to find a climbing partner? If you are on your own, you can always boulder, which means climbing around near ground level. It's still great exercise and lots of people do it.
What should I wear?
Because you will be fitted with a harness that goes around your legs like shorts, loose-fitting or stretchy clothes are ideal. Pants or shorts and a t-shirt are recommended climbing attire. Rigid clothing such as jeans can prove very uncomfortable!
Do I need to register?
All participants must sign an enrolment form before using our facilities. For climbers aged under 18, the enrolment form must also be signed by a parent or guardian. Download a copy of our enrolment form: click here (PDF format, Adobe Acrobat Reader required).
What sort of gear will I use?
Once you’ve registered, you will be fitted with a harness. You may also want to use proper climbing shoes (makes it much easier) and climbers' chalk (if your hands get sweaty). These are available for hire or, if you’re serious about climbing, you can purchase your own gear from our pro-shop.
Do you offer training?
If you want to extend your skills further enrol in one of our training programs. Technique training and Indoor Lead Climbing training sessions are run each month click here for more details
