The Castle Climbing Centre

Take on the climbing walls at The Castle Climbing Centre, housed in a repurposed grade II-listed water pumping station in Finsbury Park.

Newbies can try their hand at rope climbing and bouldering on a 90-minute taster session, or spend more time learning the basics on a one day introduction course.

For those looking to develop their skills, there are courses such as learning to lead, along with personalised coaching and private tuition.

Bring the kids along to one of the family taster sessions, or take a bouldering supervisor course so you can safely take on the role of supervisor for your kids.
