Rock Climbing in Guildford

Climbing is great for your happiness, well-being and physical health. Climbing provides us with a multitude of physical and mental benefits which come in handy dealing with the many challenges we face in everyday life. When you find yourself at the bottom of a climb you will feel exposed. Climbing improves mindset and mental well-being, enabling us to better manage the everyday at home and work.

 

Climbing walls are a great place to get started with climbing. With a roof over your head you can climb whatever the weather and they provide a safe, supervised environment to learn in. Climbing walls are also an awesome place to make climbing mates.

 

Indoor climbing walls usually cater to a range of different styles of climbing from sport climbing and bouldering at most walls to dry tooling and even caving if you’re lucky! On top of this, most good walls also have a training area that’ll give you a real workout. Indoor climbing can never be an alternative to climbing in the great outdoors, but it can be brilliant fun in its own right.
