Great to See You’re Thinking About Giving Climbing a Go!

Climbing is a wonderful sport, so we encourage everyone to come and see why millions of people around the world are pulling and pushing themselves up walls.

If you have climbed at an indoor climbing gym before and this is just your first time coming to City Bloc, please simply complete our Adult Registration Form here and come on down for a climb.

Newbies, getting started is straight-forward…

1. Do your Online Climbing Induction

We require all new climbers to go through the induction process, to ensure you have a clear understanding of how indoor bouldering works and how to use the centre safely. You will watch our induction video and then be asked some questions. At the end you will complete our registration form and then you are ready to come on down for a climb.


2. Book a ‘Get to Grips’ Induction

Are you completely new to climbing? The best way to get started and really enjoy your journey is to learn the basics first, you will progress much faster and feel more confident.

We particularly recommend our ‘Get to Grips’ Induction. We will help you start your journey with confidence.


Hadn’t done any climbing before but the guy was very friendly and helped us getting started and showed us what to do. There was lots of routes to do, we didn’t even get through all the beginner ones! Would definitely recommend.
