Community climbing centre in a historic Glasgow church with numerous autobelays, varied route setting, and The Flavourbomb Kitchen cafe. Holiday day camps, learn-to-climb courses, and birthday parties available for children from age 5.
🏆 Funzaroo Verdict
Best for families with children aged 5 and over who want to learn climbing with strong instructor support in an atmospheric setting. The course requirement before bringing non-members is worth planning around. The bouldering area has pillars close to climbing routes that warrant extra supervision awareness for younger children.

“Great climbing gym. Good routes and nice staff. The place could use an upgrade though, some new panelling on the walls, a new coat of paint and a bit more modern wall shapes wouldn't hurt. Still a great place to climb!”

“Awesome climbing centre and a great use of an old building - Countless autobelays of a really decent height, with interesting and varied route setting throughout. What a gem! 🧗”
